James Castle

Authors Zoe Leonard, Lynne Cooke, Suzanne Hudson, Briony Fer

Catalogue of the first exhibition made in Spain about the American artist James Castle, an “outsider” of the institutional circuit until not long ago. A selection of 500 of his works gives a general panoramic of his trajectory and conceptually redefines his contribution to the world of art by displaying his perseverance to cherish, protect, handle and install his original creations. His prolific oeuvre, result of a fruitful artistic activity during almost seventy years, formulated its own imaginary inspired in the popular culture that surrounded him.
