Book review: 'Outsider Art: From the Margins to the Marketplace' by David Maclagan, Reaktion Books

Abstract

For me, as an art therapist, the book is gripping to read. It is also a pleasing object to hold, being hard-backed, the size of a hand-span and full of coloured paintings. Words from the introduction show how Maclagan quickly lends the reader his own articulate curiosity and commitment to the subject.
