Omnibus: A Kind of Innocence

on BBC One London

A weekly programme on the arts in action, introduced by Humphrey Burton

Every country has its famous primitive or 'naive' artists. In America there was Grandma Moses, in England L.S. Lowry and, more recently, Mrs Helen Bradley. Recently the distinguished Italian film director Luciano Emmer discovered a flourishing school of primitive painters in a farming community in Yugoslavia. Nearly all dream of becoming rich but few wish to leave the land from which they draw their inspiration.
