The 4 Artist of Outsider Arts
Ayesgul Ozbek
A lawyer, who worked in New York, suddenly gave up her practice to become a full time Mosaic Artist. Now she has turned her hand to painting collages. She lives in Izmir, Turkey
Devika Pandey
Born with Down Syndrome, Devika has made her life full of color and imagination. We consider her our star Indian discovery as an Outsider Artist. Her series on wild animals after her visit to S. Africa are beautiful in their neat little blocks.
Capt R.S. Pandey
He died in 1987 but left behind a whole collection of his art made meticulously with felt nib pens of that period: homes, aeroplanes, cars, cycles and family members. He mostly illustrated his letters and even envelopes or drawing sheets. He also painted on Magazines, a very typical Outsider trait.
Capt Pandey was an airlines pilot until her retired at the age of 58 from Indian Airlines. He was one of the earliest commercial pilots of India and was also an Instructor in the RAF flying school in the mid-1930s. So he also is one of the wonderful discoveries of an outsider
Evy M.
A French photographer with a keen eye for unusual: we included her impressions of India at the OAF this year. This collection was her first experiments with her new SLR camera.
