Disgraceful inaction over religious extremism

I’ve just put up over on Blogcritics an article about the closure of an art exhibition in London after attacks on paintings by Maqbool Fida Hussain, a 90-year-old, the “Picasso of India”, who has been targetered in recent years by Hindu extremists.

A major exhibition, by an important international artist, has been forced to close by probably a handful of people. And hardly anyone seems to have noticed. This simply isn’t good enough, from the media, from Asia House, from the artistic community, from London itself.

Very sad.
