DGNews: Going Once, Going Twice, Go to Intuit!

Founded in 1999, Intuit: The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art has been a sanctuary for those of us fanatics of raw artistic talent.

Dedicated to showcasing 'art brut, non-traditional folk art, self-taught art, and visionary art,' Intuit's exhibitions are of artists who make art literally outside of the Art Institute of Chicago, rather than inside of it. Case in point: Lee Godie - whose work is currently on view till January 3rd.

Lee Godie, Jewelry was in this..., Collection of Lorin Adolph

Right now Intuit is holding a benefit online auction as part of their annual Visionary Ball! Dolan has donated one collage (Pennsylvania Dutch Constellation) as part of the auction.

You'll also find available works by HENRY DARGER(!), Joseph Yaokum, and Simon Sparrow (to name a few). Put your bids in before time runs out!

Dolan Geiman, Pennsylvania Dutch Constellation, bid on it!

Themed 'Conquest of the Moon,' this year's Ball is sure to be hotter than the Hale-Bopp Comet! The event is being held October 25 at The Warehouse at Carmichaels. For more info and to buy tickets, click here.

Drinks, dinner and performances by The Dolce Veeta Band & Roth Mobot - see you there!
