prices apart from Indians is foreigners are also buying into

RECENT ITEMS OF PARTICULAR
INTEREST ON GOANET. BY CORNEL DACOSTA
Goan Voice (UK) readers will have heard of the late Francis
Newton Souza. His paintings have sold for millions of US
dollars recently. His life's work is well illustrated by
VM Malar on Goanet. Malar also refers to another Goan artist,
Vasudo Gaitonde whose untitled work sold at Christie's auction
house for 14 million dollars recently. Do find out more
from Malar's contribution which includes a commentary on
several other Goan artists.
There is a wonderful ode dedicated to the woes of a dying
princess in Goa. This lovely poem on Goanet is by Tony Fernandes
and about a very sad princess. Who exactly is this princess?
This is definitely well worth finding out about.
From Miguel Braganza, we have an excellent article titled:
Making it a Mission--Fruits, Flowers and Vegetables. We
are told about the recent establishment and financing of
the National Horticultural Mission (NHM). New plant nurseries
are planned to generate much saleable fruit. So too will
be medicinal plants vegetables and spices under the ambit
of NHM. In another post, from Miguel, we get an informative
succinct compilation of writings of several women scholars
in the field of history.
Emigration from Goa for economic reasons gets another substantial
hearing on Goanet. However, this time the exploration goes
further to class and political factors relating to emigration.
Some of the discussion centred on the pre and post 1961
period but to cap it all, an in-depth article on this theme
by F Noronha is definitely very illuminating.
Finally, for an unusual account of the recent Goan Carnival
in Melbourne, do follow Oscar and Hazel Lobo's showcase
scene Down Under. One key point made by Oscar in an address
to the large happy gathering said " while it is important
to maintain our culture, it is equally important to blend
with mainstream Australians." Do find out much more
about what Oscar, among others, said at this merry occasion.
