Contemporary art in China is a man’s world. While the art market has become a powerhouse industry and produced a pantheon of multimillionaire artist-celebrities, there are no women in that pantheon.
Yet the art is there, and it is some of the most innovative work around

Maqbool Fida Husain, India's most famous painter, is afraid to go home

Husain is a Muslim who is fond of painting Hindu goddesses, sometimes portraying them nude. That obsession has earned him the ire of a small but organized cadre of Hindu nationalists. They have attacked galleries that exhibit his work, accused him in court of "promoting enmity" among faiths and, on one occasion, offered an $11 million reward for his head. http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/11/08/asia/09india.php
