We thank Raw Vision for once again highlighting Mary Whitfield among the wonderful artists featured at the OAF 2026 Viewing Room. This recognition echos through the art world, as also acclaimed critic Jerry Saltz previously underscored the enduring importance of Whitfield’s vision and voice.

As poetically reflected in reviews from The New York Times and Raw Vision, Whitfield’s paintings carry the layered memory of Southern life—moments of joy and tenderness interwoven with trauma, faith, and history. At a moment when memory itself is fiercely contested, her work stands not as nostalgia, but as witness.

Visit Phyllis Stigliano Art Projects at the Outsider Art Fair 2026 Viewing Room, and contact us to arrange a private viewing of the concurrent exhibition Mary Unseen at the PSAP gallery in Park Slope.

This is a rare opportunity to collect Mary Whitfield’s work and become a steward of remembrance, legacy, dissent, and beauty—joining institutions such as the American Folk Art Museum, Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art, The Legacy Museum, and others.

Best Art Books of 2024

Ellen Levy’s “A Book About Ray” by The MIT Press was recently reviewed by Holland Cotter in the New York Times.

“An extra-special artist deserves an extra-special book, and that’s what Ray Johnson gets in A Book About Ray… Like the life it records, the book is a brilliant turn in—highest compliment—a very Ray way.”

Ray Johnson (American, 1927–1995)

A year has unfolded since 5 November 2023 and
Mary Frances Whitfield ‘s spirit and light remain as radiant as the sunflowers of Vincent van Gogh who she so adored.

Van Gogh’s sunflowers rich, golden hearts mirror the
warmth and joy brought to the world, and the legacy
she left to inspire us all...a retrospective forthcoming
in the South as well as a catalogue raisonne - a
testament to her enduring vision and purpose.

Let this pay homage not just to Mary’s life but to the
ongoing journey of her art and spirit.
