What They're Saying
Critics Review
‘Marc Steene is a compelling advocate for the recognition and inclusion of marginalised creators as artists in their own right. His approach to their work, intuition, introspection and insight, is well thought out and challenges the still-dominant values of coolness and control in the art world.’ - Thomas Röske, director of the Prinzhorn Collection at Heidelberg University Hospital
‘This is a super book that really seems to deeply understand the sort of art I love more than any other, what is commonly called Outsider Art. Ever since I was a student these artists have been a huge influence and comfort to me. Marc Steene is a great advocate for this disparate and often misunderstood branch of art history.’ - Grayson Perry
