Sadequain’s mural in need of repairs at Frere Hall
Feb 18th
The glorious mural by Sadequain on the ceiling of the Frere Hall is showing increasing signs of damage from damp, it emerged on Wednesday.
Sadequain's mural has been affected by discolouration in certain patches and requires attention. File photo
There is discolouration in certain patches where rainwater has seeped through the roof onto the hardboard on which the mural has been painted. The work is a composite of over 100 hardboard panels mounted on wooden frames attached to the ceiling.
Some of the panels have come loose from the frames and could potentially crash to the ground.

Masterly strokes of upbeat, vibrant colours and a rhythmic mingling of anonymous-yet-recognizable urban dwellers is what populates the Moin H Shah imagery; even his darkest canvasses are aglow with sparkling optimism and a passionate belief in the glory of Man as a social being; an integral, inseparable part of the entire human experience. His work is always on the bright side of brightness, and his luminous flowers More >
Art Exhibition of French artist Henri Souffay opens at Art Chowk
Feb 18th
Architecture, they say, is an art form. This is the reason why many artists, painters and sculptors in history chose, and are still doing so, buildings as their motif or leitmotif, particularly if the buildings are made of stone. Man and stone, for some reason, have had an inexplicably symbiotic relationship. In this context, an exhibition of pen-and-ink work by French artist Henri Souffay titled ‘Reves de pierres: Dreams of Stones’, which opened at the Art Chowk Gallery on Wednesday, is an interesting study of the aforementioned observation. The most noticeable feature of the exhibits on display, even in the More >
THE SAGA OF SADEQUAIN launched at IVS Karachi
Feb 16th
When I was a child my favourite bedtime story was not Hansel and Gretel or Little Red Riding Hood, instead it was about a man who had painted over the white washed walls of his house the night before a family member’s wedding – that man was Sadequain Ahmed Naqvi.
