The New York-based Venezuelan artist Javier Téllez has partnered with the Outsider Art Fair and several international art galleries and private collectors to present a special exhibition at Frieze New York called The Doors of Perception. An homage to the visionary artist and writer William Blake, the presentation includes more than 40 self-taught artists who “like Blake, created art after having visions with the paranormal, either with aliens or with god or with angels or hell”, Téllez says. This is what he had to say about selected pieces in the exhibition and from the fair.
