Outsider art is on display in full force in SoHo with a special exhibition hosted by the Outsider Art Fair and curated by Takashi Murakami. Focusing solely on sculpture, the exhibition brings together works by nearly 60 Outsider artists, a term that generally refers to artists who are self-taught. The exhibition is titled Super-Rough, a play on the term “superflat” that was coined by Murakami and refers to a style characterized by flatness and inspired by Japanese consumer culture, including manga and anime. Refreshingly unfiltered, the works in the show offer an imaginative exploration of materials, colors, and forms.
