Published on the occasion of a groundbreaking museum exhibition curated by Lawrence Rinder with Matthew Higgs, Create showcases work made at the three foremost centers for artists with developmental disabilities: Creative Growth Art Center in Oakland, Creativity Explored in San Francisco and the National Institute of Art and Disabilities in Richmond. These centers were founded between 1972 and 1982 by Florence Ludins-Katz and Elias Katz, who today are recognized as pioneers of the art and disabilities movement. The husband-and-wife team created studios where disabled artists were integrated into the larger art community of the Bay Area, both influencing and being influenced by other artists. This richly illustrated catalogue offers an overview of the work being made at the centers, including works on paper, paintings and sculpture. Artists include: Mary Belknap, Jeremy Burleson, Attilio Crescenti, Daniel Green, Willie Harris, Carl Hendrickson, James Miles, Marlon Mullen, Bertha Otoya, Lance Rivers, Judith Scott and William Tyler.

These organizations were founded with the belief that exceptional creativity can emerge in anyone and they support the work of artists with developmental disabilities through a unique and highly successful approach to group studio practice. The centers offer an experience that is, in many ways, the antithesis of that envisioned by the art critic Roger Cardinal in 1972 when he coined the term 'outsider art' to identify the work of artists who have no contact with the art world and who are physically and/or mentally isolated. This major survey exhibition brings well-deserved attention to this compelling work, sharing it with a broad audience and expanding on its impact on a range of renowned international artists. The exhibition sparks critical dialogue concerning the categories of contemporary art practice, especially the notion of 'outsider art,' and challenges audiences to rethink the limitations of such categories." - Publisher. *** Includes: Mary Belknap - Jeremy Burleson - Attilio Crescenti - Daniel Green - Willie Harris - Carl Hendrickson - Michael Bernard Loggins - Dwight Mackintosh - John Patrick MacKenzie - James Miles - Dan Miller - James Montgomery - Marlon Mullen - Bertha Otoya - Aurie Ramirez - Evelyn Reyes - Lance Rivers - Judith Scott - William Scott - William Tyler.
