Dan Prince, who has been studying and collecting this art form for over twenty-five years, thinks perhaps it is time to reexamine some of our beliefs about art. Passing in the Outsider Lane takes a look at the true art experiences of twenty-one artists. Many of these artists have been dismissed as insane, unschooled, or childish. Prince's compassionate and insightful profiles of these individuals allow us to share in their environments, their life stories, their creative processes, and their feelings about art."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
