Red Kwoma, Mythical paintings of New Guinea

Based on an Oceanian myth, the work of three contemporary Kwoma artists communicates with tradition. The dialogue of the exhibited work – traditional art and contemporary art – illustrates how Kwoma painting, which links pictures with stories, allows us to understand the world.
