David Attenborough is, of course, renowned for his amazing wildlife series, but for many years he has also been fascinated with tribal art. This series from 1975 finds him taking a journey around the world to reveal the making and use of tribal art in some of the few places on earth where the traditions are intact.
Through the series, Attenborough gives viewers a fascinating guide to the worl's tribal art travelling to intriguing places and tribal communities. Attenborough's love of tribal art grew out of his early programme-making days at the BBC and took him to all corners of the world. From his first trips he accumulated souvenirs and eventually became a serious collector of tribal art. This series was commissioned shortly after he resigned from his job as Director of Programmes. He believed there was room on television for totem poles and masks as well as old master paintings. The resulting lavish series examined sculpture, weaving, metal casting and other artistic activities in tribal societies around the world.
