Echoes of Islam.

An exhibition at the Triton Museum of Art (Santa Clara) in cooperation with Islamic Art Exhibit

"News of the Islamic world proliferates in the media, which often neglects to share the richness and diversity of their traditions. Throughout history Islamic artists, scholars, and philosophers have produced works of astounding beauty and insight, which in turn have influenced their western counterparts, just as they themselves have shared in the visions of other cultures. The Triton Museum of Art is pleased to be working with Islamic Art Exhibit in the planning and presentation of, Echoes of Islam, an exhibition of works by contemporary artists whose work is inspired by, informed by, or presents themes and cultural influences of Islamic art and cultures. Echoes of Islam celebrates a vibrant facet of our community and the artistic richness they add to our region.

The exhibition features selected works from the following artists: Karim Alwali, Salma Arastu, Bassamat Bahnasy, Manli Chao, Taskeen Fatehdin, Azeem Khaliq, Said Nasueibeh, David Platford, Mark Piercy, Nabeela Sajjad, Ayesha Samdani, Lubna Shaikh, Arash Shirinbab, Zubair Simab."

Dates: February 16 - April 14, 2013
