Maľované príbehy z Kovačice obdivujú ľudia po celom svete. Na pestrej mape svetového naivného umenia má toto malebné mestečko postavenie ozajstnej metropoly. Insitné umenie z Kovačice je výnimočné najmä svojou výraznou lokálnou identitou. U umelcov prevláda silný pocit spolupatričnosti k mestu, v ktorom žijú.
