M F Husain Draws Statue of Liberty in Oscar Gown
Mr. Husain has drawn Statue of Liberty tastefully, in Oscar gown, wielding Tanpura. She is displaying her considerable assets alright but not nude.
I wonder if he could have shown similar taste drawing Seeta. Read more about it here.
Artist: M F Husain, The Asian Age, February 24, 2009

Dear Aniruddha,
ReplyDeleteI read your post with interest. I like it. At the same time I request you to give your frank observation on this movie made in India which bagged maximum Oscars. A lot of artists and writers are not happy with this movie. Read Avdhut Paralkar's letter in today's (26th Feb) loksatta.

Thanks Mangesh.
ReplyDeleteI will comment only after I see it in a theatre.
Good painting of M F Husain. I think he should always make a painting like this one.
