M.F. Hussain (Maqbool Fida Husain) Paintings

Maqbool Fida Husain (1915 - 2011) was a modern Indian painter of international acclaim, and a founding member of The Progressive Artists Group of Bombay (PAG). M F Husain was associated with Indian modernism in the 1940s. 

 

Husain began his career by painting billboards for feature films. Hussain's —sometimes treated in series—include topics as diverse as Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Ramayana, Mahabharata, British Raj, Bollywood, horses and motifs of Indian urban and rural life.

 

M. F. Husain’s name has become almost synonymous with modern Indian art, for no single artist has popularised Indian art. M F Husain was a special invitee along with Pablo Picasso at the Sao Paulo Biennial (Brazil) in 1971.

About Mother Teresa Maqbool Fida Husain
In Husain’s representations of Mother Teresa, she is depicted faceless, recognisable by her trademark blue-trimmed white sari. In some instances, as in the current lot, the only visible feature of her form is a disembodied, gesturing hand, another important motif seen throughout Husain’s body of work. Mother Teresa is often accompanied by the weak and vulnerable in his paintings; here, she is shown holding a baby, rendered in flat shapes of vibrant yellow, and alongside a doting street child.In painting Mother Teresa, Husain was able to explore an enduring and intensely personal theme of his work: motherhood. Showing her as a faceless entity and in the presence of children, the artist alludes to the void left by his own mother’s early passing, and more specifically, his inability to remember her face. “My mother Zainab died when I was two years old… Can anyone make up for the loss of a mother? I don’t even have a picture of her. She refused to get herself photographed… Sadly I have nothing which remotely resembles or reminds me of my mother. She is just a name to me, not even a memory.”
