Friends,

               I heard on Indian program TV channel TVASIA, on January 19, 2009 :

 

There is a solo exhibition of Parsi Zarathushti, Jehangir Sabavala’s paintings at the Ricorso Aicon Gallery in New York, from January 15, 2009 through February 8, 2009, and a movie on his life as a pioneer artist of India, who was awarded the Padma Bhushan award will be shown on this coming Thursday.  Mr. Sabavala was born in 1922 in India and is the grandson of Sir Cowasjee.
