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.
