Until October 26, 2024, Copenhagen Outsider Art Gallery showcases Bolette Liljeroth Lund's interdisciplinary art, where she explores the language of femininity through textiles. Her work reinterprets traditional 'women's' crafts, using recycled materials like French embroidery yarn and hospital textiles. Inspired by her grandmother's floral motifs, Bolette's creations challenge romanticised images of women while paying tribute to the tactile experience. The dynamic blend of textures and contrasting materials invites viewers to see femininity in a new light.

From September 6 – October 19, 2024, Andrew Edlin Gallery in New York presents "Light Bulb, Socket, Outlet, Fan", its third solo exhibition of works by California-based artist Dan Miller (b. 1961). A thirty-two-year veteran of Oakland’s Creative Growth Art Center, the pioneering non-profit serving artists with disabilities, Miller has exhibited his work widely, initially within the Outsider Art community and subsequently at major institutions including the Museum of Modern Art, New York (Glossolalia, 2008), the Venice Biennale (Viva Arte Viva, 2017), and currently SFMOMA (Creative Growth: The House that Art Built, 2024).

Diagnosed with autism, Miller is mostly nonverbal. He works ambidextrously with intense, frenetic concentration, obsessively layering words or phrases until their legibility is obliterated. In the period leading up to Venice (2017), Miller began to create on a larger, and in some cases, monumental scale.

This exhibition features a slew of recent large-scale acrylic and ink works on paper, highlighted by an imposing horizontal piece from 2022 measuring over thirteen feet in length. A painted navy blue and black background is punctuated by slashing yellow lines and scrawled, readable words like “fan” and “socket.” As is overwhelmingly the case with Miller’s work, most of his imagery is indecipherable, however, in several mid-sized compositions, he repeatedly renders the identifiable outline of a light bulb.
