Henry Darger  - Part 2 (1892-1973)

"Rather than condescendingly and misguidedly treating Darger only as a case study, we can look into his work for what it may tell us about both the powerful allure of mass-mediated narrative and imagery and the possibility (or impossibility) of escaping the labyrinthine and often terrifying histories and politics of which we in the world today are the direct heirs.” Michael Moon.

Henry Darger  - Part 1 (1892-1973)

In his external life Darger was a pitiable figure, reclusive, impoverished, orphaned at 16, often regarded as crazy, suffering almost constant pain in his later years and working menial jobs his entire life. However in the internal world of his writings and art he was both a hero and anti-hero, creator of magical, violent world’s and a fiercely determined protector of children.

Carlo Zinelli (1916-1974)

“As though this were the moment he had always been waiting for, Carlo immediately set out on his extraordinary journey, filling large sheets of paper one after the other, with total concentration, occasionally declaiming words in his sonorous voice and a language all his own."

Nek Chand  - Part 2 (1924-2015)

"Curiously, the Garden seems simultaneously made and not made for the visitor, and I felt as though I had happened across a great secret—despite the fact that on that day, like any other at the Garden, thousands of other paying visitors are also enmeshed in the same “secret.” Tracy Ann Buck Bonfitto from The Rock Garden: A Study of Memory, Place-Making, and Community in Chandigarh, India (Dissertation).
