Primitivové, děti, šílenci a média. K recepci umění přírodních národů a příbuzných projevů v Čechách třicátých let

This article focuses on the reception of primitive arts and related works, including children's and mediumistic paintings, works of mentally impaired people, and folk arts. Since it concentrates on the Czech environment in the 1930s, it deals above all with surrealists and Josef Čapek, whose lifelong interest in this type of art peaked in the said period, during which his book called Umění přírodních národů (The Art of Aboriginal Peoples) was published.
