Overview
The behemothic global art market is one which few aspiring artists manage to penetrate. How then would a creative person with virtually no arts engagement, maybe with mental or other significant health issues, disability, or difficult social circumstances, find a way in? Providing a means of gaining an understanding and appreciation of largely overlooked artists and their work, Outside In: Exploring the margins of art champions the creatives and artworks produced by those traditionally kept on the periphery of the art world. In the context of the support offered by the charity Outside In, it explores the artists' motivations and approaches to making. In doing so, a robust case is made for the need to break down the significant barriers excluding talented artists from the art world, and to create an inclusive artistic community in turn.Details
