"Rather than condescendingly and misguidedly treating Darger only as a case study, we can look into his work for what it may tell us about both the powerful allure of mass-mediated narrative and imagery and the possibility (or impossibility) of escaping the labyrinthine and often terrifying histories and politics of which we in the world today are the direct heirs.â Michael Moon. Darger's Resources.

In his external life Darger was a pitiable figure, reclusive, impoverished, orphaned at 16, often regarded as crazy, suffering almost constant pain in his later years and working menial jobs his entire life. However in the internal world of his writings and art he was both a hero and anti-hero, creator of magical, violent worldâs and a fiercely determined protector of children.

"Curiously, the Garden seems simultaneously made and not made for the visitor, and I felt as though I had happened across a great secretâdespite the fact that on that day, like any other at the Garden, thousands of other paying visitors are also enmeshed in the same âsecret.â Tracy Ann Buck Bonfitto from The Rock Garden: A Study of Memory, Place-Making, and Community in Chandigarh, India (Dissertation).

There is something unique and fascinating about the work of the self-taught visionary Madge Gill - the nameless women that feature in almost all of her drawn and painted works provide a haunting gaze challenging the viewer to both look more closely but, so intensely do they stare, itâs hard not to look away - they are the eyes to the soul of an unseen force that unrelentingly drove the hand of an artist for over forty years.

Born into slavery in the American South in 1853, emancipated in 1865 and living into his 90's Bill Traylor's life spanned a tumultuous time in US history. He had lived for over 8 decades before he began creating the art for which he has become known and his extant works come from a period between 1939 and 1942. Bill Traylor is an American Master who packed a lifetime of experiences into his short career as an artist creating a potent and still relevant body of work that resonates just as powerfully as ever.

Judith Scott was born on May 1st 1943 and passed away, in the arms of her twin sister Joyce, in March 2005 aged 62 years old. Not unlike Adolf Wolfli and Martin Ramirez, Scott lived a life that was broken into distinct parts, but unlike Wolfli and Ramirez it was her freedom from institutionalisation that led to her embarking on her artistic career.

Last time on the Outsider Art Podcast we left MartĂn RamĂrez in 1948, having met Tarmo Pasto, the main actor in his discovery narrative. Pasto would go on to play one of the major roles in the last part of RamĂrezâs life as an artist and be the primary source of his story and guardian and promoter of his work as it made itâs way firstly into minor exhibitions and then, via Jim Nutt and Phyllis Kind, into the commercial art world.

First things first â letâs get some of the myths about MartĂn RamĂrez straight â he wasnât mute, at the time of his committal he was very likely not severely mentally ill, and the Freudian interpretation of a sexualised meaning to his many drawings of trains and tunnels is highly likely to be erroneous and, in the cold light of meaningful biography, wildly out of context...

âThe victor (Wolfli), at one with the sacrifice, here in full grandeur; never has the front of the coin contrasted so strongly with the reverse: on the one side, ithyphallic, pursuing some poor little girl, on the other side, cheerful, though always locked in, sleeves rolled up, plug of tobacco in his cheek, in front of a pile of his most vivid creations, which, as an ensemble, represent one of the three or four most important oeuvres of the twentieth century. And, what is not, shall be. Amen, amen: Amen. And thus it shall be.â Andre Breton 1965

In 1916 as part of the second of his narrative works, the Geographic and Algebraic Books, Wolfli assigned himself a new name (which required some explanation),
âSt. Adolf the I, Great-King of Grenoble-St. Adolf King, Giant-City in Savojen; last named with an additional calculation-supplement of 50 hours is my third-youngest brother as a Great-God! And I am St. Adolf II, Couscous King and King Great-God. Bern, Friday, the 23rd June 1916â
After 16 years of concentrated work he must have felt he had earned this enriched sobriquet...

When Adolf Wolfli passed away on November 6th, 1930 he was working on what would become his final uncompleted work - Funeral March. He left behind 45 large self-bound books, and 16 exercise books of over 25,000 pages in total which included 1,600 drawings and 1,600 collages as well as approximately 50 Early artworks (from 1904-1907), numerous pieces of, what Walter Morgenthaler called, âBread Artâ but are now more commonly referred to as his single sheet drawings, as well as intricately painted objects such as a screen and wooden closets...

An introduction to the Outsider Art Podcast in which I introduce myself, tell you what the podcast series is going to be about and get tangled up in the existential quagmire that is Outsider Art.
In short summary the Outsider Art Podcast will be an episodic series looking at the Art, Artists, History, Controversies and whatever else raises its head as we do a deep dive into this fascinating genre.
We will be exploring the Art and Artists that sit (often uncomfortably) within the genre, finding out about the history and the critical events, texts, exhibitions and personalities, and sifting through the "term warfare" controversies that have surrounded Outsider Art for many decades. But mostly we'll be celebrating the outstanding masterworks that have sprung from outside the art establishment.
