achilles Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I don't really know whether this is a good news or a bad news. Agreed, that he has a right to do what he feels like with his art, but having said that, some posters above make sense... nudity becomes an "art" when drawing naked Indian Goddesses!?! "Why hasn't he drawn Gods of different faiths naked?" is a million dollar question. :hmmm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been better if he had chosen to stay on. yes let's not blame him...after all he was just innocently showing off his talent by targeting only one particular faith and not his own....let's not blame him for misusing his freedom of expression and hurting the majority of the country where he was born in...... same country where his people can declare jihad against Taslima Nasrin or Salman Rushdie openly and not a single word of outrage comes from anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed' date=' that he has a right to do what he feels like with his art, but having said that, some posters above make sense... nudity becomes an "art" when drawing naked Indian Goddesses!?! [b']"Why hasn't he drawn Gods of different faiths naked?" is a million dollar question. :hmmm: I think he already has answered that question many a times. Unlike other religions, Hinduism is the only one that is so heavily lenient towards arts and has absolutely no compulsions against nudity. Some of the greatest work of Hindu arts are from Khajuraho and Konark. In most temples you would find naked statutes. This is no big deal at all(and every Shiva/Shankar bhakta should tell you that anyway). The funny thing is right wing loony brigade suggests on one hand how Muslim invaders brought abt purdah/ghunghat system and essentially killed the sheer exuberance of Hindu culture, then go about kicking a Muslim artists who paints in the nude! Then there is a case of celebration of Hindu godesses as work of art. Which religion, apart from Buddhism to an extent, celebrates so many gods and godesses? Every Hindu student, atleast those in North India, worships Saraswati. Almost every artists, Hindu or Muslim, typically does the same. Is that something you expect in Christianty?? Of course not. Lastly, why did he not paint Gods of his own religion? Well Islam is monolithic and does not beleive in idol worship. Forget painting Allah, even Mohammed, Ali etc is not suggested/recommended. So why would any Muslim do that? On the other hand any Hindu, or even a non-Hindu, can paint images. Dont see anything wrong with it. With regards to him leaving for Qatar, well it is ironical since this board is overrun by people who have settled abroad, or are in the process of doing so. Hussain has lived abroad for a long time so why can this not be a case similar to many others? Simply because his painting are different?? lol xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
