What's your opinion on outsider art?
>>
I like it, it's very interesting.

The term "outsider art" is total horseshit. Art is art - doesn't matter who made it.

well that's why it's called outsider "art"
the fact that the person making hasn't been able to draw inspiration and knowledge in any conventional way from the extensive theorisation and exposition of art all over the world is worth taking in account in order to appreciate the stuff for what it is

the horseshit term is surely "art" in this context or any

Doesn't matter. It could be a lonely soccer mom or some autistic street kid, if the art is good then it's good. Fuck asinine labels.

The belligerent idiot poster has a point. Who the hell is influenced by art these days. Herp derp mona lisa? Idunno lolxD. Most are influenced by cartoons anyways. I would say your local runoff of outsider art is on pixiv dA tumblr wherever.

I pretty much like it all if it works as a symbol.

Some of it is pretty opaque however... I'm not interested in that. It ought to be legible in some way.

It's a pointless label but a lot of the art under it is quite interesting.
>>
It's creepy. In the search of novelty some poor crazies are jumped by millions of rl retards who have no clue about art themselves.

>not being able to draw knowledge and inspiration from the art establishment
>in the age of the internet

outsider art truly is dead

The term is a euphemism for 'works made by the deranged and/or mentally unstable'

As long as those are around we'll have "outsider art".

By the way, here's a documentary featuring Talpazan
