Morris Hirshfield was a self-taught artist of great and near-painful meticulousness. Every mark he made seemed to be accompanied by a projecting tongue and a small groan of inward satisfaction.
Like many other outsider artists, he chose subjects that any long-trained insider artist would have thought entirely appropriate, too: nudes, still lifes, landscapes, for example. His work seems to exist in parallel with high culture's more familiar norms, seemingly within reach of them, but never quite touching. It exists out on its own, perfectly self-sufficient, within a self-generated world of playful and dream-like fantasy. |

Morris Hirshfield was a self-taught artist (at the age of 65!) of great and near-painful meticulousness. Every mark he made seemed to be accompanied by a projecting tongue and a small groan of inward satisfaction. His favorite subjects included domestic animals – dogs, cats, etc – and, when he painted them, he generally preferred to show them off in family groups.
Hirshfield made a new world; a bold, revolutionary, colorful world of unsophisticated perspective and curiously shaped inhabitants. One that impressed the Surrealists, Primitivists and the likes of Piet Mondrian.
