Timeline
Born in Amritsar, British India in 1941, Mirza joined the Mayo School of Arts (now National College of Arts (NCA), Lahore, where he was one of Shakir Ali's favorite students of art. Shakir Ali was the principal at the National College of Arts in Lahore at that time. Bashir graduated in 1962 from the department of design and was amongst the first batch of graduates of the renamed school.
He never stayed for long with one theme or style, fluctuating between realistic, abstract and non-objective styles.
Mirza looked out for new ventures of earning a living.
Mirza designed two stamps of the 1963 stamp series "Freedom from Hunger" for the Pakistan Postal Services.
He opened up an art gallery (the first ever in Karachi) at Kutchery Road in 1965 but in 1969 left town to go abroad.
He also published an Art Journal called Artistic Pakistan but in 1968 sold it off.
He exhibited his controversial "Lonely Girl" painting series in 1971.
The "Lonely Girl" painting series was shown and gifted to the Seoul Olympic Art Museum when he was invited by the Seoul Olympic Committee.
His exhibition "DAWN OF DEMOCRACY" was inaugurated by Begum Nusrat Bhutto and sporadic highs and lows followed in his career.
In 1994, Mirza departed for Australia as Pakistan's cultural attaché.
But he soon got tired of the diplomatic life and returned to Pakistan in 1996.
By then he was also sick.
On his return, he opened up an art gallery and an advertising agency in Karachi.
