Here we are in Papua New Guinea, across from a large hotel, where street painters have been setting up shop for years. They have a gate facing the main exit, a perfect place to hang canvases that might attract the attention of hotel guests eager to take home a gift for their family or friends. It's a magical place! Papua New Guinea's most extravagant and spectacular Museum of Contemporary Art is located across from the Holiday Inn in Port Moresby. Every morning for the past forty years, at the crack of dawn, a dozen painters take to the sidewalk, each meticulously arranging their canvases in their designated spot. These artists offer colorful works for sale, expressing their moods, their way of seeing the world, and their vision of the future.
