Art is never finished, only abandoned.


Art is never finished, only abandoned.
And our world which was beautifully adorned with the art of Maestro MF Hussain has only been abandoned, not finished. Every season comes to an end, and the season of MF Hussain’s beautiful life has also passed. Since we are artists ourselves, we truly understand the value and the nature of an artist as great as him.
A winner of the Padma Shri and Raja Ravi Verma awards, MF Hussain has been painting since the 1940’s. Known as the Picasso of India, he has religiously worked for over half a century in the field of art and even made artistic cinema for his audiences.
This, message is truly and wholly for Maqbool Fida Hussain. Let’s remember him, revere him and hope he rests in artful peace. After all, this is all an artist would want.
Hope the Indian master of art rests in colourful peace. Amen.

Keeping the art alive,
