We are committed to unveiling a great range of the best of visionary art by exploring one unifying theme at a time. We seek out individual guest curators who know, respect, and adore visionary art and who are likely to have their own special relationship with a particular exhibition theme. We like them to lead a full life quite apart from their curatorial abilities, so that their personal richness and other interests can influence their show. Check out "AVAM's Sure-Fire Recipe for Enchantment" below - a starting point for creating our one-of-a-kind exhibitions.
