Celebrating a visionary’s success
Rebecca Hoffberger established Baltimore’s Visionary Arts Museum in 1995 as a museum for the work of nontraditional and self-taught artists, such as the two robots that flank her in a gallery display. “The World’s First Robot Family” by DeVon Smith was created using oscillating fans for movement, and parts from old hair dryers, TV antennas, and other household electronics.
