GAGA Arts Festival 2007

OUTSIDE IN

Outsider Art Show

Curated by James Tyler and Dean Lozow

The paintings and sculpture of twenty five self-taught ‘outsiders’ and American folk artists will be on display at the GAGA Arts Center as a part of this year’s GAGA Arts Festival.

“I’m very excited about this exhibition“, says GAGA’s new Executive Director and co-curator James Tyler. “We have some fantastic artists from up and down the east coast, many of them with national reputations within the ‘outsider’ art world. And with over eight thousand square of beautifully raw gallery space available, we will be able to display a real representative body of work from each of the participating artists. It’s just a natural fit for GAGA. People are going to love this show.”

Artists include: Matt Sesow, Mike Conner, Ted Ludwiczak, Bob Justin, Ross Brodar, Mike Jacobs, Stephen Anderson, Carmen C. Johnson, Carol Gelker, Gabriel Shaffer, Daniel Genova, Alison Silva, Toni Quest, Brendon Burke, Chezaraie Giuliano, John-Paul Quinones, Lacy Duhrssen, and Johns Hopkins. With a special installation by Gerbomatic.

The show is opening in conjunction with the 2007 GAGA Arts Festival, which is held every year at the Garnerville Arts and Industrial Center in Garnerville New York. Many of the artists will be at the festival and available to answer questions. There will also be music, film, open studios, and other exhibitions.
