Part of Afghanistan's culture preservation is to inform the world of the modern history of fine art in Afghanistan.

With the destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas, the attention of scientists resulted in the (re)discovery of ancient frescoes on the ceiling of the caves near to where the Buddhas once stood. It is quite possible that this art is some of the first fine art of the world.

After thirty years of war, it is surprising that artists were actually able to work. Some of today's master Afghan artists were so desperate to paint during the last 20 years that they painted on plastic, they made their own canvas, and made their own paints.
