192pp, profusely illustrated in b&w + color cover. In a protective clear acetate dustwrapper. This is Roger Cardinal's groundbreaking 1972 survey of art produced over the preceding Century by the mentally ill and outliers of various stripes. He gave the name for their creations "Outsider Art" - the term that is now commonplace for this genre fifty years later. A number of the artists celebrated here received their first scholarly recognition in these pages. These include Aloise (Corbaz), Karl Brendel (Genzel), Gaston Chaissac, Ferdinand Cheval, Joseph Crepin, Jules Dou, Madge Gill, August Klotz, Johann (Knupfer) Knopf, Augustin Lesage, Peter Moog, Heinrich Anton Muller, August Neter (Natterer),Simon Rodia, Clarence Schmidt, Friedrich Schroder-Sonnenstern, Scottie Wilson (Louis Freeman), and Adolf Wolfli. A most presentable example of the 1972 first Praeger paperback edition of this landmark survey showing some overall light wear and soiling. Seller Inventory # 027063

Paperbound about 11.5 inches tall by 10 inches wide 240 pages. Bibliography, index. Description: This copy is Signed by the author, with a personalized inscription. Profusely illustrated in black and white and color. From the jacket blurb: ''The art of visionaries, folk creators, spiritualists, recluses, the mad and the socially marginalized is no longer scorned and cannot be ignored. Among the first to value and collect such work as the French artist Jean Dubuffet. For those he judged to represent the purest form of creation he coined the term Art Brut, literally 'raw art' -- raw because it was uncooked by culture, raw because it came directly from the psyche, art touched by a raw nerve. John Maizels traces the history of the recognition and study of this art and examines the different theories and definitions that have grown up around it. He provides detailed expositions of the work of individual artists ranging from Art Brut masters such as Adolf Wolfi and Aloise Corbaz to such gifted American folk artists as Bill Traylor ad Mose Tolliver.''
