When the art world has paid attention to makers from outside the cultural establishment,
including so-called outsider and self-taught artists, it has generally been within
limiting categories. Yet these artists, including many women, people with disabilities,
and people of color, have had a transformative influence on the history of modern
art. Responding to growing interest in these artists, this book offers a nuanced history
of their work and how it has been understood from the early twentieth century to the
present day. Nonconformers includes work by well-known figures such as Henry Darger,
Hilma af Klint, and Bill Traylor alongside many other artists who deserve widespread
recognition. After reviewing how self-taught artists factored into key movements of
twentieth-century art, the book shifts to highlighting the voices of contemporary
practitioners through new interviews with artists William Scott, Mamadou Cisse, and
George Widener. An international group of contributors addresses topics such as the
development of the Black Folk Art movement in America and l'Art Brut in France, the
creative process of self-taught artists working outside of traditional studios, and
the themes of figuration, landscape, and abstraction. Global in scope and with chronological
breadth, this alternative narrative is an essential introduction to the genre long
known as "Outsider Art"--Publisher
