Light of the Sufis: the Mystical Arts of Islam
Thursday September 3, 2009 from 10:00am - 5:00pm
Brooklyn Museum
200 Eastern Pky
Brooklyn, New York 11238 Get Directions
This installation features approximately twenty-five objects from the collections of the Brooklyn Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and private collections related to a mystical branch of Islam known as Sufism. While differing Muslim sects and diverse nationalities of the Islamic world may not always share a single religious or cultural ideology, the mystical and romantic aspects of Sufism tend to appeal to a global audience. Artists from the medieval Islamic period through the present day have produced works of art ranging from ceramic and metal wares to illustrated manuscripts and photographs.
