Specialties
Intuit: The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art promotes public awareness, understanding, and appreciation of intuitive and outsider art through education, exhibition, collecting and publishing. Intuit defines ‘intuitive and outsider art’ as the work of artists who demonstrate little influence from the mainstream art world, and who instead are motivated by their unique personal vision. This definition includes art brut, non-traditional folk art, self-taught art, and visionary art. As of June 1, 2010, admission is $ 5. Intuit Members and children under 12 are free.
History
Established in 1991.
In early 1991, a small group of artists, collectors, art dealers, and business people began discussing the feasibility of forming a group devoted to intuitive and outsider art. In June, the founding few invited like-minded others to a public meeting in order to launch the organization and help determine its future course. Incredibly, nearly 80 people attended that first meeting, challenging those in attendance to build a more formal organizational structure. Intuit: The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art was then established as a nonprofit organization to recognize the creative work of individuals who demonstrate little influence from the mainstream art world — artists who instead seem motivated by their unique personal visions. Today, Intuit’s members, nationwide and abroad, support this cause. Through its exhibitions and educational programs, Intuit bolsters the nationally prominent role that Chicago artists and collectors have played in generating interest in outsider art.
