Maqbool Fida Husain, (born September 17, 1915, Pandharpur, Maharashtra, India) popularly known as MF, is a Qatari artist of Indian origin.According to Forbes magazine, he has been called the "Picasso of India". After there was some controversy regarding his paintings in his home country, he was on a self imposed exile from 2006. In January, 2010, he was offered the citizenship of Qatar, which he accepted.
Husain first became well-known as an artist in the late 1940s. In 1947, he joined the Progressive Artists' Group, founded by Francis Newton Souza. This was a clique of young artists who wished to break with the nationalist traditions established by the Bengal school of art and to encourage an Indian avant-garde, engaged at an international level. In 1952, his first solo exhibition was held at Zurich and over the next few years, his work was widely seen in Europe and the U.S. In 1955, he was awarded the prestigious Padma Shree prize by the Government of India.
