"The critic Roger Cardinal has described several characteristics of outsider art that make a certain sense-even while they seem applicable to all kinds of artists. He has written that outsider artists are isolated or secretive individuals whose work creates an alternate world, which is obsessive and illogical and is often made from commmonplace materials. But, many people in the field, especially museum professionals, increasingly consider this definition to be slightly pejorative or to isolate such work from 'normal' art in ways that either diminish or idealize it. In addition, so much of this art is entering the mainstream of both art history and the art market that the word is not only confusing but inaccurate. The question about the word 'outsider' isn't going to be settled here, but it seems indisputable that as this work becomes more familiar and is more carefully considered the blurring of boundaries will continue. Because the bottom line is this: what makes outsider art memorable is not its outsider origins, but a level of artistry and power that withstands comparison with any other kind of art."
