Monika Kinley OBE (24 August 1925 – 9 March 2014) [1] was a British art dealer, collector and curator, particularly noted for her championing of the work and integrity of outsider artists . [1] The Times called her "outsider art's champion". [2]

She was born Monika Wolf in Berlin into an Austrian Jewish family, the daughter of August Wolf, a journalist and his wife Paula Wolf. In 1932, they moved to Vienna, but left in 1938 on the very day that German troops entered the city. They stayed in Prague until 1939, where her parents had to queue around the clock for two days to get the necessary stamps in their passports, arriving in Britain on 2 April 1939. [1] [3] Paula Wolf was already ill and died soon after their arrival. August Wolf was interned in an enemy aliens' camp, and Monika found herself, at the beginning of the World War II, on a train to Whitby, where she stayed at a boarding school run by Anglican nuns. [1]

After studying Fine Art at the University of Hull , [4] she eventually arrived in London. She met and fell in love with a Polish RAF pilot, and had a child, Peter, but the airman was killed in action. [3] She then worked for the potter Lucie Rie , who was also a refugee from Vienna. [3] After the war, she met and married the painter Peter Kinley , who was her second cousin. [1]

Kinley was introduced to the London art scene by working on the bookstall at the Tate Gallery in 1953 selling postcards. [1] She worked in art dealing, first with Victor Waddington and then at the Grosvenor Gallery , and when she separated from Peter Kinley (died 1988) she began to deal on her own account from her home, a flat in Hammersmith . She acted for Prunella Clough , Keith Vaughan , Leon Kossoff and Frank Auerbach , and as an adviser to museums and galleries. [1] [5]

In 1977, Kinley met Victor Musgrave , the poet, art dealer and curator who claimed to be the first London art dealer not to wear a tie, [2] and was to become her life partner. They did not marry, her marriage to Peter Kinley did not end until 1980. [2] Victor had been married to the portrait photographer Ida Kar until her death in 1974 and had already been dealing in outsider art for a decade by the time he met Monika. Victor and Monika continued to promote Kar's work, despite the separation. [2] After meeting Victor, outsider art became the principal focus of Monika's dealing, curating and collecting. Together they put on exhibitions, raised funding and started their own collection. [1]

When Musgrave died in 1984, Kinley continued their work in creating an Outsider Art collection and archive. She made a number of journeys across the world searching for untrained and unknown people making paintings, sculpture and other objects. The Tate Gallery has details of her road trip to the American Deep South in 1987 as well as two trips to France in 1985 and 1994. [6]

In 2011, Kinley curated A Life in Art for the Plymouth Arts Centre. Her last exhibition was Artists Make Faces at Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery in 2013. [7] In total she curated over 30 exhibitions of outsider art, both in the UK and overseas. [8]

In the 2013 New Year Honours , Kinley was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for services to the visual arts.

The Musgrave Kinley Outsider Art Collection of about 800 works was given by the Musgrave Kinley Outsider Trust to the Whitworth Art Gallery , University of Manchester, facilitated by the Contemporary Art Society . Previously it was on loan for ten years at the Irish Museum of Modern Art (IMMA) in Dublin. [5] [9] The collection includes items by Henry Darger , Madge Gill and Albert Louden . [8]

Monika Kinley, who has died aged 88, made a significant contribution to the British art world, as a dealer, collector and curator, championing in particular the cause of outsider artists – the self-taught and self-motivated who were not part of the mainstream.
It was in 1977, when Monika met Victor Musgrave, a dealer and curator who became her life partner, that the cause of outsider art became her main focus. Together they put on exhibitions, raised funds and began a collection. In 1979 Musgrave curated, with Roger Cardinal, an exhibition at the Hayward Gallery that was the most serious and ambitious survey of outsider art seen in Britain to that date. After Musgrave's death in 1984, Monika devoted her considerable energy to promoting, enlarging and finding a home for their collection.
It was housed for many years in the Irish Museum of Modern Art and now, known as the Musgrave Kinley Outsider Art Collection , has found a permanent home in Manchester, at the university's Whitworth Art Gallery. The collection's 800 or so works include a Henry Darger triptych; Aloïse's Palais Rumine; Madge Gill ink drawings; Albert Louden pastels; Johann Hauser's Woman with Three Owls and a Moon; and works by Pascal Verbena and Scottie Wilson.
Monika curated more than 30 exhibitions on outsider art in Europe, America and Japan, as well as in Britain. One of the most important was In Another World, which toured to seven cities in the UK in 1987-88. Works from the Musgrave Kinley collection were seen in Outsider Art at Tate Britain in 2005 and in the same year the book Monika's Story was published by the Musgrave Kinley Outsider Trust.
Monika was born in Berlin into an Austrian-Jewish family. By her own account her parents, August and Paula Wolf, were in Berlin because it was the place to be; her father made a living – just – writing for newspapers. In 1932 they moved first to Vienna and then to Prague, from where the family escaped by train across Europe to Britain fleeing from the Nazis. Monika's mother was ill and did not survive long after her arrival. Her father was interned in an enemy aliens' camp, and Monika found herself, at the beginning of the second world war, on a train from London with a placard around her neck saying "Whitby". She was sent to a boarding school run by Anglican nuns, whom she came to adore.
After this experience (her father later moved north to be close to her, working as a caretaker) she went to art school in Hull and then made her way to London. She worked for the potter Lucie Rie , and fell in love and had a child, Peter, with a Polish airman, who then disappeared.
After the war she married the painter Peter Kinley , her second cousin, and they lived initially in a tiny flat in Notting Hill Gate. While Peter painted and prepared for exhibitions in London and New York, Monika entered the London art world via the bookstall at the Tate. It was there, in 1953, at the time of the great Mexican exhibition that she met Joanna Drew , the Arts Council organiser of the exhibition, who was to become a lifelong friend and ally. This was typical of the times. It didn't matter that you were just selling postcards, if you wanted to join in, extra hands were always welcome and you became part of the team. Monika never looked back.
She entered the world of art dealing, first with Victor Waddington and then the Grosvenor Gallery . After a successful exhibition of Peter's in New York and some profitable dealing on Monika's part, they were able to put a deposit down on a flat in Hammersmith overlooking the river. When the marriage ended, Monika stayed on in the flat and, in a remarkably prescient way, began "dealing" from her home, which was novel at the time. Peter Kinley died in 1988.
She had the confidence and support of artists – Prunella Clough , Keith Vaughan , Leon Kossoff and Frank Auerbach , for example – and was well regarded by collectors and museums, acting, for instance, as an independent adviser on major purchases for Rugby Museum and Art Gallery . One of her "clients" was Douglas Hall, the first director of the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art in Edinburgh, to whom she sold an Auerbach and a Roger Hilton . I can remember chaining my bike to the railings outside her flat one Saturday, in the company of the young artist Robert Mason. We had both come to see what Monika had on her walls that week.
Monika and Musgrave moved to Lambeth in the early 1980s – their house there was just about big enough for the collection at that time. She then moved to Hackney with her son and his young family. Ten years ago, she followed them down to Plymouth.
There, in 2011, she curated a show for the Plymouth Arts Centre, A Life in Art , which brought together the artists she admired, insider or outsider. The show was launched, and Monika saluted, by Sir Nicholas Serota , one of "Monika's boys", as she used to refer to us. Her spirit was extraordinary. For more than 20 years she lived with the results of a bout of cancer. You would never have known it. She got on with things. Her appointment as OBE for services to art in 2012 could not have been more appropriate.
Her last exhibition, in her last year, was Artists Make Faces , at the City Art Gallery in Plymouth. It memorably combined artists from Britain and abroad with the outsider artists who were the passion of her later years. It gave great pleasure to visitors and brought some amazing artists to Plymouth. The only sadness was that, at that stage, Monika was too ill to install the exhibition – hanging exhibitions was something she had done superlatively well.
Monika is survived by Peter and her grandchildren, Carla and Joanna.
