New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 173 p., ills. Islamic art and modernism: Formal elements in painting, architecture and film. "Much has been written about the workshop structure and the role of the Sultan, Emperor or Emir in commissioning works of painting or architecture in the history of Islamic art and contradiction to the ideas of the last two centuries in the West, where the individual artist is credited with making a conceptual statement while working alone. The reality presented here is somewhere in the middle - individual poets, artists and architects play a prominent role historically in Islamic art while the position off the Ruler is also extremely valuable and stylistically relevant. The movement of artists and architects to cities that are centers of a particular style, movement or patronage was common throughout history and the interchange in Ottoman and Safavid-Persian and Mughal and Deccani India are examples of methods and techniques spreading, developing, influencing and changing regional trends. In this study, selected paintings, buildings andd films that cross genres, styles and dynastic periods are explored in both a socio-historical context and, more importantly, in terms of their striking formal innovations. It is a thematic new look at how we position Islamic art - how it in fact embodies, exemplifies and invents many aspects of Modernism in Painting and Architecture and Film.".
