Teaching Kids to See Art in a New Way!

Apparently the Metropolitan Museum of Art [really wants kids] to learn more about the precise positioning and execution of the physical expression of love between men—[indigenous New Guinean-style](http://www.metmuseum.org/works_of_art/collection_database/arts_of_africa_oceania_and_the_americas/Bis_Pole/ViewObject_zoom.aspx?depNm=arts_of_africa_oceania_and_the_americas&Title=bis_pole&pID=0&kWd=&vW=0&Pg=16&St=5&StOd=1&vT=2&RID=91).  The family-friendly cultural institution of the city has extensive kids-oriented programming, including a newly-issued "Kids' Map" ([download it here](http://www.metmuseum.org/explore/publications/index.htm#famguides)) of the museum's collection featuring illustrations of some stand-out pieces.  Unfortunately for the higher-ups at the Met, they've employed a naughty guy with a bent for subversive propaganda to do the illustrations for them. One of the cute spot illos features a mid-20th century bis pole by the reportedly bi-curious Asmat people of New Guinea depicting two men basically in the act, while a grade school kid happily looks on (detail below). Maybe the Met wants to launch a tolerance initiative, starting with the youth of this city?
