These films are so well made. I’m really enjoying them. Interesting thing about Hussain, after a certain point he only walked barefoot. He wanted to feel the ground. When he visited Lahore,people started giving him money for shoes
WOW! I've never before really seen much of his work. I am so taken-aback! What energy! His mission of purpose has inspired and rekindled my spark (that I feared had died). Thank you so much!
This was a wonderful video! I love his work but had never before heard of him or of the Indian school of painting that is referred to. I will look up some more of his work and the works of other Indian artists. We often think Europe when we think of great art, but its so important to expand our horizons! Thank you 😊 💓
It is good to see more diverse artists in your talks. There should be more content about Asian and Middle Eastern artists. Thank you for making this fantastic video on M F Hussain. I loved your Amrita Shegil video as well.
Interesting video. I had no idea of this great artist's existence. Seeing his style develop over the years was enlightening. It is sad that an artist cannot just paint and enjoy the journey without people projecting their prejudices on the works of art. When there is no freedom of expression in art there is no freedom at all.
Thank you, that was great! I am not a young person, I'm definitely middle-aged in fact, but I found it a great introduction to M F Husain. I'm interested in both art and India.
Thank you for you videos. Informative, entertaining, always a delight to watch. I can´t say I care much for MF Husain´s paintings but I find his life admirable. Is always interesting to learn about artists outside of our field of vision.
Thanks for making videos about less mainstream artists..loved it. Would be great to see you talking about Oswaldo Guayasamín at some point too. Warmest wishes
Wow... I always knew he was a celebrated artist but never really knew all this story behind his masterpieces! Thank you for this video... It was truly informative and I absolutely enjoyed your narrative!
Great Paul. Enjoyed it so much and first time i learn about this artist. Very impressive. Thanks for your efforts. You always present valuable content.
Thank you so much. I would love to know more about great Indian artist. So many never signed their work. I am also interested in the American artist Alfonso Ossorio
M f hussan is great artist wish you happy birthday on month 17 September from Maharashtra n death anniversary on month 9 june london england best wishes u n ur beautiful family we are waiting ur new project 🎉❤
Thank you. Such a tremendous artist of his time. His personal to generous interior world is a gift of a transcendent wonder I am pleased to enjoy, and find that I am found captive to indulge in his work.
This channel is amazing. He had a cartoon like style with bold black outlines. The colour themes in his paintings don’t make me feel good , they agitate me. Interesting artist none the less. Thank u so much for brilliant videos 🇨🇦🌸🌸🌸🌸
Yes, I think all countries should be more tolerant, multicultural and the world's religions much more tolerant of those who don't believe or wish to criticise
The problem with contemporary artists is that they are still alive and their work are subject to copyright, which is less of an issue with someone who died years ago. I have done many international artists from countries such as USA, France, Norway, India, Holland, Spain, and Mexico

ASHVA SHAKTI YASHOBAL!!! THREE CHEERS FOR THE 61ST CAVALRY AND THE PRESIDENTS BODY GUARDS!!!. Husain spent time at the 61st Rissala stables & royal stables of Rajmata Gayatri Devi in Jaipur. Rajmata Gayatri Devi patronized Indian painters like Ram Kumar, Gaitonde, Manjit Bawa, among others. It's after this stint at Jaipur that he met Madhuri Dixit at an award function in 1994 and carried out a series of Horses & Madhuri paintings and then entered film making. He made a series of paintings on 61st Cavalry, PBG, various Rissala's, Lancers, Cavalries, Army, State Forces & Polo. They were sketches & oil on canvases. These have remained private and not showcased publicly till date. The painting material was provided by courtesy of Rajmata Gayatri Devi & her friend Mrs Zorawar Singh. He painted over 25-30 sketches & paintings on the various Army Rissala's, Cavalries, Lancers, Polo & horses. Husain would spend long hours watching young cavalry officers play practice & polo chukkars on the private cavalry polo grounds next to the Cavalry officers mess in Khatipura. He actually painted a live horse in the middle of Connaught Place in the early 90s at Happenings, belonging to koel & Kali Puri, during an art opening. To his mind the horse was a metaphor for freedom and he craved to be so free himself that he didn’t want to be shackled by anything. MF Husain was hoisted by The Maharani of Jaipur, Rajmata Gayatri Devi and The Jaipur Rissala between 1992 and 1995. The eminent painter spent his joyful days at the Jaipur Rissala which is presently known as the 61st Cavalry, staying in the cavalry officer's mess. In his time over there, Husain painted a series of paintings which depicted the army and the polo horses. Besides Husain immortalized Her Highness Gayatri Devi in the various portraits, he painted of her. However, a few of those portraits remained incomplete as Husain could never return to culminate the artistic work he had undertaken at The Rissala.
Talking of Rajmata Gayatri Devi, she strongly hoped that the market will lead to the arts coming into a happier position - as she said, art is the last thing people invest in when they have bought their real estate, jewels, cars and other expensive toys.
She believed patronage was needed to support the artists for they are our heritage & repositories of culture. Both visual & performing artists & artistes needed to be given a better economic deal that gives them the freedom to create without having to worry where their next meal was going to come from. Art is a very erratic pay master, she pushed for schemes to be launched by Rajasthan Government to bring more artists within its ambit - after all, if assured work can be provided at the rural level for development, why not for artists, artistes & artisans? She wrote to the government to explore the possibility of taking a fresh look at arts management and create an arts cadre that will help run the several thousand arts institutions in the country. Introducing professional courses in institutes like IIM could be the first step to market the arts better towards the end of making the arts self sufficient. Steps need to be taken urgently to undo the damage wreaked by unscrupulous art galleries. In their race to extract their profits they raised the prices of art to unsustainable levels, leaving many artists in the country in pitiable conditions. She supported artists in best possible ways for sustainable growth. She acquired for her personal collections and gifting to her close friends, art works of upcoming and established Indian painters. Her homes Indian painters adorn the walls. I personally remember an incident where on my retuem from Delhi polo season, I mentioned to her about the plight and hard times Mr Gaitonde had fallen on as he along with Ramkumar, Manjit Bawa, Khanna were closely associated with the cavalry and were regulars to the Jaipur Polo grounds at Delhi. She heard me and next morning wished to buy his works along with few other artists. 30-35 oil on canvases of the painters immediately. That purchase had hugely helped Gaitonde to tide over his large accumulated debts after his accident which left him physically restrained and then the fire which destroyed his house, She did not want anyone to know other than Mrs Zorawar Singh her close confidante. She had most pious and gentle helping heart and she felt pained for any artists trouble. God Bless her and the family. Thanks to God her grand children bring her great peace and she must be happy in heaven's see them do so well. Princesses Lalitya, her husband and her lovely children and Maharaj Devraj bring her great honor. They are doing extremely well and very humble and beautiful in their demeanor. May Hanuman bless them. ASHVA SHAKTI YASHOBAL!!! THREE CHEERS FOR THE 61ST CAVALRY AND THE PRESIDENTS BODY GUARDS.
I like his work more than Picasso, especially his horses. They have this sort of crudeness to them, but its only superficial, he really understands and displays the anatomy of the animal as a figure in three dimensional space.
I love this channel, however I think you can't even start to compare this artist with Picasso. Having said that, I must admit I found the video interesting. Thank you.
Yes, he was an interesting painter to make a video about. Unfortunately, from my point of view, he hasn't proved popular so his video generates very little income compared to videos about the more traditional European/American artists.
@@devient626 If someone did draw that, is Christianity going to fall apart as a consequence? Of course not. Some people may be offended, but then we are all offended at some time in our lives. At the end of the day it's a just a drawing, a painting or an artists view, it's not going to effect 2000 years of history, is it?
Thank you sir,his work was abruptly, marred by a certain political class, even though, he was merely recreating from memory of probably the umpteen nude diety's that he must have come across his life time here in India,no pun intended, a definite loss for the international art aficionados 🤔
Agreed, it's such a shame that some, who sincerely believe in God(s) and Deities seek to impose their views on those who have different views and opinions.
This channel deserves much more appreciation.
Thank you, I'm really pleased you enjoy my videos. Cheers Paul
Rubbish video
@@pareenpatel5787 its not rubbish unlike u
Great stuff, but he he needs to adjust his oddness
@@JustSayinStuff He is exceptionally perfect in his narrating.
It is so shameful and unfortunate that he was treated like that. He is an incredible inspiration to modern Indian painters..
I would agree
@@ArtHistorySchool Charlie hebdo?
I love that u expanded our knowledge here with an Indian artist.
Cheers
These films are so well made. I’m really enjoying them. Interesting thing about Hussain, after a certain point he only walked barefoot. He wanted to feel the ground. When he visited Lahore,people started giving him money for shoes
Really pleased you enjoyed the video. I didn't know the story of the shoes, interesting.
Thank you for knowledge❤ love from India🇮🇳
Thank you. Cheers from England

He was a great painter, true.
very interesting ....thou as an Indian i am a fan of the european masters :)
I liked M.F. Husain's painting, but he was very influenced by European art

It is sad that an artist cannot just paint and enjoy the journey without people projecting their prejudices on the works of art.

Subscribed! Its so refreshing to see you bringing in great artists who arent just euro-centric
Thanks for the sub. Next artist after Rene Magritte will be Amrita Sher-Gil. Cheers
Thank you, I'd never heard of him, but I instantly found him exciting.
He was a fascinating artist
@Arun Arun hahahahaha😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just take some opinions from some europian art critics
@Arun Arun so what
Thank you. Such a tremendous artist of his time. His personal to generous interior world is a gift of a transcendent wonder I am pleased to enjoy, and find that I am found captive to indulge in his work.
Couldn't agree more!
Agreed
Me encantó el Picasso de India, saludos desde Chile, sudamerica.
Que hayas disfrutado el video. Saludos desde Inglaterra
Love your videos
That's great, thanks
This channel is amazing. He had a cartoon like style with bold black outlines. The colour themes in his paintings don’t make me feel good , they agitate me. Interesting artist none the less. Thank u so much for brilliant videos 🇨🇦🌸🌸🌸🌸
You are very welcome
Paul, I really enjoy your work as an interested learner of art history. I just wanted to say so. Thanks.
Wow, thank you, much appreciated
Always love your videos, this was v interesting.
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers
Wow oh my God , i born in doha qatar n had no idea about him , i was there ....God bless his soul . Amen
That's great, you should find out more about him - he's a great artist.
Couldn't disagree more with you
A fundamentalist fraud in a tolerant society but he kept pushing it
Comparing this fraud to picasso is absurd
Really interesting, I didn,t know this artist.
Yes, another under rated artist
He is not just a painter but was a hypothetical personalized muslim.
What is a 'hypothetical, personalised muslim?
Sorry , I mean he was a Jihadi in a sense.
Very well explained
Thank you
Very interesting video...thank you so much..
You are very welcome. Cheers Paul
Thank yousir.💐🌷🌹

Thank you! Cheers!
Love this paintor.
He was a great painter
A great Indian secular artist. A shame that he had to leave India. We need to be more tolerant, and multi cultural. Respect from London. UK.
Yes, I think all countries should be more tolerant, multicultural and the world's religions much more tolerant of those who don't believe or wish to criticise
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Very interesting!!!!! THANK YOU!!! WA state, USA
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers
WOW excellent
Thank you! Cheers!
He used to made portraits of his family members like mother, daughter, sister and we called this picture as saraswati
Interesting. Cheers
M.F. Husain's “Sprinkling Horses” sold for $1.14 million.
I didn't know that.
idiot whoever bought it
Thank you again!!!!!
You are welcome
Sir this is very informative appreciate it a lot
So nice of you. Cheers
Beautiful paintings/
They certainly were
You have covered Hussains work and life very briefly
Yep, not much more I could cram into 15 minutes.
These paintings are extraordinary. What a shame sectarian controversy haunted his reputation and success. Excellent. Thank you.
Yes, it's a shame sectarianism, racism and discrimination shame our society. Glad you liked the video. Cheers Paul
Amazing amazing amazing 😉
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you
You're welcome
Your videos are awesome, please continue making more videos! You really are amazing.
Thanks, I will be making more videos but they do take a while to make. Cheers Paul
Very interesting! Thank you for the video!
You are very welcome
Please do more of these on these contemporary artists, especially more international ones
The problem with contemporary artists is that they are still alive and their work are subject to copyright, which is less of an issue with someone who died years ago. I have done many international artists from countries such as USA, France, Norway, India, Holland, Spain, and Mexico

I didn't know much of that. Many thanks
really amazing
Cheers
Plz make a more videos of artist biography and their history
I'll try, things not conducive to that at the moment.
Great 🙏🏻
Cheers
Me fascina sus videos felicidades
Thank you
I like his work more than Picasso, especially his horses. They have this sort of crudeness to them, but its only superficial, he really understands and displays the anatomy of the animal as a figure in three dimensional space.
He is certainly a very underrated and talented artist.
Great boss
Cheers
Amazingg!! You should also look into Sadequain, he was a pakistani artist who had a similar style to that of picasso’s.
I'll have to look him up
Luv u😍🙏🎩
Cheers
Picasso and Matisse were great artists too.maybe a bit too influential.i think he was finding his own path just before his end of life.
You are probably right. Cheers
Strong colors
Yes
Woman with blue tiger is my favorite.
Yes, it is a great painting
Nice video
Cheers
great
Cheers
His har style very nice
Cheers
Thank you so much. Finally I found out why Hindus hate him, but I still don't understand how it makes sense.
I know what you mean
The only thing I like about the guy is his name. His paintings look way too familiar anyway.
That's fine. Cheers
please create a video on amrita sher-gil
Great suggestion.
I love this channel, however I think you can't even start to compare this artist with Picasso. Having said that, I must admit I found the video interesting. Thank you.
He was known as the 'Picasso of India' in the 50's and 60's. But you are right Picasso was a much more creative artist.
Thank you for all videos however especial thanks because their is a huge void about artists other then European and American.
Yes, he was an interesting painter to make a video about. Unfortunately, from my point of view, he hasn't proved popular so his video generates very little income compared to videos about the more traditional European/American artists.
I love his art as it’s look like his art is unique skill which only he has. But he shouldn’t be touch any religious boundaries for both religions.
Why not?
