| Notes: Mexico Gallery / Raw Vision, Published 2004. Wraps, 47 pp.; 21 cm; illustrated with color and black-and-white reproductions. In Very Good condition. White pictorial paper covers, the front a grid of outsider artworks; mild shelf and edge wear; binding tight; pages clean and unmarked. The catalogue of "Equal Rights to Creativity," an outsider-art exhibition at the Mexico Gallery, London, May to June 2004, produced with Raw Vision, the international outsider-art journal founded by John Maizels. The London show was the British contribution to a wider European Union Culture 2000 project of the same name, a five-country collaboration (with partners in Finland, Estonia, Hungary, and Italy) built around the Finnish ITE movement (itse tehty elama, "self-made life") of contemporary folk art. Essays by Tony Thorne, Roger Cardinal (whose 1972 book Outsider Art gave the field its English name), and Colin Rhodes frame a survey of classic Art Brut and self-taught masters, among them Adolf Wolfli, Aloise Corbaz, Madge Gill, Carlo Zinelli, Johann Hauser, Anna Zemankova, Scottie Wilson, Nek Chand, Howard Finster, and Mr Imagination, shown alongside Finnish ITE artists documented by Veli Grano and Erkki Pirtola. | |||||||||||||
