(Ceefax subtitles)
In tonight's programme, Omnibus documents the remarkable rise to fame and fortune in the international art market in New York of Tim Rollins and KOS. It is an extraordinary story because the Kids of Survival, as they call themselves, were a group of mainly Hispanic teenagers at the South Bronx Junior High School, officially classified as learning disabled. With their work featured at the Venice Biennale and purchased by Charles Saatchi, the group are an undoubted success.
But how long will it last and what does their story tell us about the role and value of art in the 1980s?
starring and The local inhabitants of a predominently black, southern county town -
'owned' by a white family - beg the Rev Tom Haywood to become sheriff. Tom agrees on one condition, that he will be a lawman without a gun - a situation that becomes very difficult in the violent and racist township of Carthage, Alabama.
