First: Shannon and Duncan talk Robert
Reinard, Program Director, Collections &
Exhibitions and Amanda Curtis, Program
Director, Education from Intuit.


Intuit is a not-for-profit organization founded in 1991. Our mission is to promote
public awareness, understanding, and appreciation of intuitive and outsider art
through a program of education and exhibition.


Toward this end, Intuit strives to discover, document, maintain, preserve,
exhibit, and collect examples of intuitive and outsider art; and to operate a
permanent facility in which to pursue such activities.


Intuit defines "intuitive and outsider art" as work of artists who
demonstrate little influence from the mainstream art world and who seem instead
motivated by their unique personal visions. This includes what is known as art
brut, non-traditional folk art, self-taught art, and visionary art.

Joanna talk to Gretchen Kalwinski and Eugenia Williamson from Literago.org
