The world's most prestigious non-mainstream arts festival...
The Raw Arts Festival is dedicated to exhibiting artworks by non-mainstream artists. These artists can be Outsider, Folk, Raw or Self-taught. The Festival has been held annually since August 2004 and has exhibited in London, Valencia (Spain) and in New York. In this time, the festival has succeeded in gaining vast quantities of publicity from many of the major publications world-wide including Art Fairs International, Metro, New York Arts Magazine, Raw Vision, The Times and Yahoo news. It has gained widespread international critical acclaim. The first two festivals have been recognized as being 'London's largest and best International exhibition of self-taught art mounted to date' and the Festival held in New York was referenced as being the 'First major non-mainstream arts Festival to offer a fresh alternative to the New York Outsider Art Fair'.
Many of the artists who have exhibited at the Festival have now become well established artists in there own right. The Los Angeles festival is yet again attracting applications from world-class raw artists. Dover Abrams (USA) is an artist and co-curator of the infamous Infusion Gallery in Los Angeles, Akiko Kitami (USA) has exhibited her art works at the prestigious Ward Nasse Gallery in New York, Franco Meloni (Italy) has exhibited his artworks worldwide and is due for a stunning solo exhibition at the Broadway Gallery in New York, Piers Midwinter (UK) - the creator and director of the Raw Arts Festival has exhibited his artworks worldwide and has recently been an artist in residence for a whole month in Beijing, China at the space owned by the New York Arts Magazine. Ben Reche (UK) and Brian Steimel (USA) have also exhibited their artworks worldwide. Brian has participated in the Carnival of Samhain and Ben has artworks featured on the Saatchi on-line website. All of these artists have exhibited previously with the Raw Arts Festival and have received widespread publicity as a result. The Festival is also exhibiting some exciting upcoming artists such as Beth Cornell (USA) who has widely exhibited her art in Arizona, USA. Beth grew up with Folk Art all around her in Pennsylvania and has thus been heavily influenced by self-taught art.
The Festival will exhibit at the Infusion Gallery. This is located at: 719 South Spring Street, Los Angeles, California 90014, USA. The show will exhibit from March 2nd to March 26th 2008. The gallery is open from Tuesday through to Saturday, between 12-6 p.m.

The 2008 festival can only exhibit a limited number of artists and applications are accepted on a first come first served basis. It is thus recommended that artists wishing to apply do so quickly.
