Leading contemporary artist Govinder Nazran dies

Govinder Nazran (1964 - 2008)

As many of you will know, the sad news of Govinder Nazran’s death was announced in a statement Monday from his publisher Washington Green. Govinder died on Tuesday 30th December 2008 after suffering a seizure on Christmas Day.

One of the UK’s leading contemporary artists, with a loyal worldwide following, Govinder’s success was confirmed in 2004 when he was awarded the art industry ‘Best Selling Published Artist Award’.

In his own words, "Above all else I am, and always will be, an eternal optimist. Optimism is one of the greatest gifts we possess."

Along with many others who have been touched by Govinder's work our thoughts are with his family and friends at this time.
