Only psychophants and "News Hungry" people will cry or weep for MFH. Abusing another community's religion and faith to become 'Famous' and win on commerce and fame is not 'Great Art' but prostitution for Name and wealth. That way he was smart and very successful.So true artist or good soul should not 'weep' over his running away in another country for his 'SKIN'. Van Gogue would not have fled but would accept fate like a GREAT Artist.
I personally know another very famous Artist who made a Sculpture of Mother Kali but though a Hindu, did not care to read his own Scripture! and know the metaphor.
I heard him telling an Europian visitor that mother KALI is a very ferocious goddess and eats up human beings at random. I was so shocked that I had to leave at once to avoid an on the spot quarrel !
I knew MF Hussein in 1950s when he painted his fiat car spraying colours , walked bare footed (for public notice and then, grdually and very successfully picked up the subject of Hindu Godesses in physical-sensuality to win his position.
Really, very smart & novel approach for Name & Fame!
