Helen Kalvak Inuit Women mid century modern art outsider folk art minimalist
Located in Norfolk, GB
A fabulous piece of Inuit history and a compelling drawing of everyday life for an Inuit family. The artwork is also a strong example of a natural understanding of perspective from an artist with no formal art training. The lines and mark-making are interesting both in the fact that we can see the artist working out the image by the faint rubbings out around the animals horns (see image). The lines also appear to reflect Helen's own facial beautifying tattoos; at the time of her death in 1984 was one of the last women to carry the facial tattoos of her group. The drawing was purchased from Professor Leo Bushman, part of the Faculty at the Calgary University. Bushman was helping the Co-op promote Helen Kalvak...

Ohio Outsider Artist Aethelgram Diptych Drawing Painting Assemblage
By Aethelred Eldridge
Located in Surfside, FL
Black and white acrylic paint on paper, (Make the poor live with temperance, sell them art; and The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell therin for ever), 1980-1986, Signed lower right on each panel. Æthelred Eldridge (born James Edward Leonard Eldridge on April 21, 1930, in Monroe, Michigan) is an academic and avant-garde painter. He was Associate Professor at the Ohio University School of Art from 1957 until 2014. He is best known for his black and white art accompanied by esoteric writings inspired by William Blake, and the founding of a "Church of William Blake" not far from his home in Athens, Ohio. The church eventually burned down; Eldridge still claims arson. His style is similar to outsider, visionary or folk art of a sort. from William Corwin in Brooklyn Rail "Though on the fringe of comprehensibility in terms of his meanings, Æthelred Eldridge is firmly rooted in a visual political tradition of gestural black-and-white illustration that includes artists like Seth David Tobocman, Art Spiegelman, George Herriman...
