Installation view of Keep Your Lamps Trimmed and Burning On view at Shin Gallery, curated by Scott Ogden as part of the Outsider Art Fair 2021 Photo: Olya Vysotskaya A trickle of intrepid visitors made their way through the various venues of the Outsider Art Fair in New York on its VIP preview day yesterday. In addition to online viewing rooms, this year’s edition of the cult fair is taking place across four galleries in Manhattan, as well as the legendary Electric Lady recording studio, with two solo exhibitions and five broadly themed group exhibitions. “It would have been easy to roll over and do just the OVRs but we’re scrappy, we’re sort of the renegade fair,” says Andrew Edlin, the fair’s owner, who is hosting one of the group exhibitions in his gallery and notes that the in-person exhibitions offered another low-cost opportunity for participating galleries. “The fair exists for our dealers and we want them to stay in the game until this all blows over.”
