Panel Discussion Mar. 17, 6pm
|
| Why Us?  Maybe it began with Jean Dubuffet's famous speech "Anti-cultural Positions" presented in 1951. Maybe there is something in the water. Whatever it is, there is special fascination with outsider art in Chicago and we hope this discussion will help us understand it. Learn more about the panelists here. Have a question for our panelists? Email us!
Free and open to the public.

 Check out the events page of our website and fill in those calendars. Just because we're 20 doesn't mean we're slowing down. We have a number of panel discussions and lectures, an upcoming film screening, two Intuit Shows and the grandest event - the Gala!
Hey out-of-towners! While we love to see your shining faces, we understand that not all of you can make it to Chicago for every exhibition. Get in on the action by visiting our Flickr page. |
Outside The Box: Burl "B.J." Newton

 Not much is known about B.J. Newton, but his work is unforgettable. He is one of the many self-taught artists who was "discovered" by the Chicago Imagists. See this hauntingly beautiful piece for yourself as part of Architecture of Hope - the Treasures of Intuit. Burl "B.J." Newton Foot Light, n.d., Oil on canvas 28 x 17 in., Gift of Phyllis Kind |
