The CMNA possesses a representative and
worthwhile collection of works by foreign
artists, primarily of those who at one
time or another exhibited in the Gallery
of Primitive Art – today the Croatian
Museum of Naive Art: the Pole Nikifor,
the Frenchmen Simon Schwartzenberg and
Germain van der Steen, the Italian Enrico
Benassi, the German sculptor Erich Bödeker
and the Dutchman Willem van Genk. From
Macedonia comes the painter Vangel Naumovski,
and from Serbia the sculptors Bogosav
Živković and Milan Stanisavljević, the
painter Ilija Bosijl, and one of the most
celebrated Art Brut painters in the world,
Sava Sekulić. Also in the collection are
works of the Italian Pietro Ghizzardi,
the Russian Pavel Leonov and the sculptress
Sofija Naletilić Penuvaša. Their works
show not only the exceptional contributions
of the artists mentioned, but all the
diversity of the Naive and its swings
towards the trends of Art Brut and Outsider
Art, phenomena that have in the last decade
gained greatly in value and importance.
