自学成才艺术家全球史：倡导深入理解常受体制挑战的现代与当代艺术.

 

当艺术界关注来自文化体制之外的创作者，包括所谓的局外人和自学成才的艺术家时，通常是将他们归入有限的范畴。然而，这些艺术家，其中包括许多女性、残疾人和有色人种，对现代艺术史产生了变革性的影响。为了回应人们对这些艺术家日益增长的兴趣，本书细致入微地梳理了他们的作品历史，以及从20世纪初至今这些作品如何被理解。

 

《非循规者》一书收录了亨利·达格、希尔玛·阿夫·克林特和比尔·特雷勒等知名人物的作品，以及许多其他值得广泛认可的艺术家的作品。在回顾了自学成才的艺术家如何成为20世纪艺术关键运动的一部分之后，本书通过新采访艺术家威廉·斯科特、马马杜·西塞和乔治·威德纳，转而突出当代实践者的声音。来自国际的一群撰稿人探讨了诸如美国黑人民间艺术运动和法国原生艺术（l’Art Brut）的发展、在传统工作室之外工作的自学成才艺术家的创作过程，以及具象、风景和抽象等主题。本书具有全球视野和时间跨度，这一另类叙事是对长期被称为“原生艺术”的流派的重要入门介绍。

 

A global history of self-taught artists advocating for a nuanced understanding of modern and contemporary art often challenged by the establishment

 

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 Cissé, 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.”
