What is 'Islamic' Art?: Between Religion and Perception
Shaw, Wendy M. K. (Freie Universitat Berlin)
Investigating what is Islamic about Islamic art through analysis of the Qur'an, Hadith, Sufi texts, ancient philosophy, and a rich corpus of transcultural poetry, Shaw challenges the historicism, secularism, and regionalism of traditional art history with new means of perceiving Islamic painting, music, and geometric pattern.
