Information About

Visionary Art




Visionary art is Art that transcends the physical world and portrays a wider vision of Awareness including Spiritual or Mystical Theme s, or is based in such experiences.

Both trained and self-taught (or Outsider ) artists create visionary works. Many well known visionary artists have drawn inspiration from Psycheldelic Drug experience, although this is not a prerequisite.

Contemporary visionary artists count Hieronymous Bosch and William Blake amongst their antecedents. The transcendental nature of this style of art links it with Psychedelic Art , and the visionary aspect ties it with the Surrealists .

The American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore, Maryland is dedicated to the collection and display of such artwork.
