The Exhibitor List for the 2016 Outsider Art Fair Has Arrived

The roster has expanded by about 20 percent from the last New York edition.

Some 59 exhibitors are coming to New York for the 24th edition of the Outsider Art Fair in January. Taking place in its new home at the Metropolitan Pavilion, on 18th Street, the fair hosts dealers of self-taught artists from 13 countries. The roster has expanded by nearly 20 percent, up from 50 at the 2015 edition.

Among the 13 first-time exhibitors are plenty of dealers not primarily associated with outsider artists but rather with cutting-edge contemporary art: there’s James Fuentes and JTT galleries, both from New York, for example. (JTT will share a booth with established outsider art dealers Adams and Ollman, of New York and Portland.)

The fair is run by New York dealer Andrew Edlin, whose company Wide Open Arts bought the enterprise in 2012. It expanded to Paris three years ago, and increased attendance at the October 2015 edition by some 75 percent. In recent years, the fair has increasingly blurred the boundaries between insider and outsider, featuring more and more hip contemporary art dealers.

The next New York edition takes place January 21-24 at 125 West 18th Street.
