Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to art created by non-professional artists or artisans who have not had formal training and are often self-taught; also art in the naive style created by formally trained artists. It typically displays a child-like rendering of anatomy, perspective, and other pictorial elements. Media may include painting, sculpture, embroidery, quilts, toys, ships' figureheads, decoys, painted targets, and other objects; often refers to such objects created specifically in 19th- and 20th-century Europe and North America. Distinguished from "outsider art," which is based on a philosophy of the avoidance of, rather than simply a lack of, traditional training. It is also usually distinct from "folk art," which is created according to specific cultural traditions.
