A list of artist sites I want to see in my lifetime

in

Earlier this year I visited Intuit art center in Chicago, small museum of outsider art. I came to know of them a few years ago because they have a section on the artist Henry Darger, and if you haven’t looked into his story, it’s interesting, look him up.

On this visit they had an exhibition titled “At home with the Artists” by Ted Degner and is based on his 50 years of roadtripping around the U.S. visiting these off-the-map artists’ sites (show is up until Sep 4, 2023)

A few years ago I began the start of many more years ahead roadtripping through the world. Inspired by some of the homes listed in the exhibition, along with my own curiosity, I decided to compile an on-going list (with links) of some notable artist homes/ sites that I want to see in my life. Feel free to take from this list or send me recs if you think I’m missing any.

Also to note, I visited Kohler, Wisconsin last weekend and came to realize that the Kohler Foundation has a Preservation section dedicated to preserving some of these art sites in the U.S. more on that here.
