This stunning book examines the collection of works by self-taught
artists assembled by Stephanie and John Smither over the last
thirty-odd years. A team of prominent curators, writers, critics,
and art historians focuses on key works by twelve artists,
including the boisterous assemblages of Thornton Dial; brightly
colored visual interpretations of the Bible by Sister Gertrude
Morgan; Oscar Hadwiger's detailed wood models of fantastical
architecture; and Carlo Zinelli's narrative tableaus of stylized
figures and animals. Also featured are works by the ceramicist
Georgia Blizzard; drawings by Hiroyuki Doi, Solange Knopf, Martin
Ramirez, and Dominico Zindato; paintings by Jon Serl and Johnnie
Swearingen; and carved wood sculptures by Charlie Willeto.
