From the great Partition canvases to mosques, mustard fields and calligraphy — over 3,000 works, held in collections across 60 countries.
Vast, ten-by-fifteen-foot histories of 1947 — hundreds of figures caught mid-migration. Prints stand on permanent display at Bab-e-Azadi (Wagah Border), the Punjab Assembly and the Pakistan Movement Workers Complex.
Jimmy Engineer accepts a limited number of commissions each year — murals and large-scale canvases for malls and public spaces, works for corporate and institutional collections, and collaborations with charitable causes.
A professional painter since 1976, Jimmy Engineer is best known for his monumental canvases of the Partition and the Pakistan Movement — and equally for a life of service. His works hang in private collections on every continent; his walks and awareness programmes have raised support for special children, orphans and patients across Pakistan.
"We value and appreciate Jimmy's personal involvement with the cause — a successful cancer awareness walk and the donation of his calligraphies."
"Pakistan's top artist, selfless social worker, dedicated philanthropist — the one and only Jimmy has the soul of a Sufi."
"To the people he might be a well-known artist, but to these Special Children he is regarded as the savior."
Exhibitions, talks and peace missions have carried Jimmy across the globe. Browse photographs from the journeys.
