I asked ChatGPT a question about the difference between Academically Trained Artists and Outsider Artists. In the visual arts industry, there are conversations about the merits of artists who contribute to visual culture. In academic circles, discussions about Outsider Artists often fall into two camps: (a) whether referencing them is appropriate due to their uniqueness and isolation, which could make incorporating their style disrespectful and unsubstantiated; or (b) if they provide a formal language that can be incorporated into one’s practice. The question I asked was: “What are the characteristics of an academically experienced artist vs. an outsider artist?”
