Bahdeebahdu presents a study in contrasts with the expressive, mixed-media creations of Jim Bloom alongside the meticulous and obsessive drawings of Justin Duerr. While Bloom depicts the ironic, annoying, dysfunctional, contradictory and quirky behavior he's witness to amongst the people in our world, Duerr functions in an alternate reality of dreams and visions, telling stories in the minutiae of his text and imagery. However unalike, both possess a rare degree of motivation for ever-expansive, compelling and elaborate works, drawing attention from their peers, critics and art admirers all. Ultimately, this exhibit showcases the ways in which personality and perception are manifested through genuine, original and personal expressions.

Presented in association with the Coalition lngenu Self-Taught Artists' Collective and the Outsider Folk Art Gallery.
