BUFORD, Ga. – For 26 years, Slotin Auction has been the premier auction house bringing self-taught art, outsider art and folk art to the market. Over the years, collectors of self-taught art have started to incorporate contemporary art and objects into their collections and contemporary art collectors have begun to incorporate selections of self-taught art into their line up as well. As the two fields begin to merge, Slotin has diversified its self-taught art offerings to bring a specialty sale to the auction block on Saturday, May 16, that is sure interest buyers of both genres. Absentee and Internet live bidding is available through LiveAuctioneers.
