Estimated to go for -whaaat-? http://cgi.liveauctions.ebay.com/20-...06003320QQrdZ1 I actually saw the all metal crown graphic on another website when Google-ing around for parts for my Graphic View, it was actually used by some photographer at some time and isn't "just" a piece of found art. It's a piece of 'found art' now: the seller is an art & antiques gallery. As art it is worth far more than it ever was as "just" a camera. As a working camera it's a disaster. I'm sure someone loved it -- one can find someone to love anything; The gallery is sure hoping so. The original questions was "outsider art" - not "found art": was it made to be art? One needs to discriminate found art, found object art, art to be found, outsider art and bad art. found art: the seminal Duchamp's urinal (ooooh, _very_ bad pun) http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/low/entertainment/4059997.stm Photography is a form of found art where the artist takes a mechanical visual reproduction of the found object and not the object itself. found object art: arraigned collections, weldments, collage.. http://arts.ucsc.edu/sesnon/exhibiti...odwetrust.html art to be found: only since the 60's, might have been the drugs http://www.found-art.com/index.php outsider art: the more decrepit the artist the more valuable the work; often judged by psychiatrists rather than art critics. Many variations http://www.artbrut.com/ bad art: what more can one say... http://www.museumofbadart.org/ -- Nicholas O.
