Review: Three Views on Painting

on BBC Two England

The first edition of a new weekly magazine on the arts presented by James Mossman

1: Public Painters
This summer fifteen young painters have created an exhibition of giant canvases to be hung in public places: their aim -to win patrons in industry. Review has recorded their work from first conception to preview on 4 September

2: The Critic
John Berger, novelist and art critic, asks if painters can say anything any more to anyone except themselves

3: Four Sunday Painters
Housewives, a retired clerk, and an ex-convict now on the Water Board, paint in their spare time. Some do it to escape from economic drudgery, others to find out more about themselves and the world around them
