Talk: Roger Cardinal: The Marginal Arts

In 1972 Roger Cardinal first coined the term ‘Outsider Art’ as an English equivalent of Art Brut. In this talk he discusses the unlikely skills, powerful emotional resonances and strange and seductive beauty of the ‘marginal arts’ and reviews various types of art outside the mainstream, including non-European Tribal Art, rural Folk Art, Child Art, Graffiti, Psychotic Art and Outsider Art.
