Discussion | Outsider Art: Contemporary Considerations | University of Melbourne

The “Talk, The Talk” lecture series and Art Curatorship Partnership (ACP) PROJECTS invites you to
join Dr. Anthony White, Senior Lecturer at The University of Melbourne and Ms. Sim Luttin, Curator and Gallery Manager at Arts Project, in a discussion on some of the myths and stereotypes that have been applied to the work of Outsider artists. Entitled ‘Outsider Art: Contemporary Considerations’ this topic will include artists who have experienced disability, mental issues and other forms of marginalization over the last 100 years. It will also entail a presentation reflecting on the role of supported studios, focusing on Arts Projects Australia as a national and international model of excellence, and extend to discussing barriers encountered in broader contemporary practice.

Date: Friday 27th April, 5:00PM-6: 30 PM

Venue: Room 553, Level 5, Arts West Building, The University of Melbourne, Parkville
