Welcome to Islamic Art Exhibit
“Islamic art is perhaps the most accessible manifestation of a complex civilization that often seems enigmatic to outsiders. Through its brilliant use of color and its superb balance between design and form, Islamic art creates an immediate visual impact. Its strong aesthetic appeal transcends distances in time and space, as well as differences in language, culture, and creed.”
-Dr Linda Komaroff, associate curator of Islamic Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
