Abstract

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates -- Maqbool Fida Husain, India's most famous painter, is afraid to go home. Mr. 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.
