MNZ: Raw Vision #59 Summer 2007


I think I've mentioned before how I enjoy the concept of Raw Vision magazine, being it's about outsider art. But when you make a high-priced art magazine out of that type of shit, it becomes conscious of itself, thus kinda ruining the whole idea of outsider art. This issue is the best one I've gotten since I've had a subscription, with the cover story on some Nebraska dude who built a giant thing of sorts out of metal scraps that's supposed to have healing energy, according to his own personal scientifics. Plus, there were some drawings in this issue by mental patients about mind control machines. But then there was also a bunch of dumb shit. Basically, the idea of an outsider art magazine, for me, would be just the crazy drawings/collages/paintings of mental patients.
