Situated in this field, this book addresses how universities, museums, and other educational institutions can continue to challenge stereotypical or homogeneous notions of Islam and Islamic art. It reviews subtle and overt mythologies through scholarly research, museum collections and exhibitions, classroom perspectives, and artists' initiatives. This collaborative volume addresses a conspicuous and persistent gap in the literature, which can only be filled by recognizing and resolving persistent myths regarding Islamic art from diverse academic and professional perspectives. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, museum studies, visual culture, and Middle Eastern studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOnur Öztürk\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Assistant Professor of Art History at Columbia College Chicago, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXenia Gazi\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Lecturer at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSam Bowker\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Senior Lecturer in Art History and Visual Culture at Charles Sturt University, Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 244\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.52 x 9.69 x 6.85 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 25, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48299159486712,"sku":"9780367772666","price":93.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/5629\/7208\/files\/VPoNzZDd7h9780367772666.webp?v=1781609864","url":"https:\/\/barneysbooksellers.com\/products\/deconstructing-the-myths-of-islamic-art-paperback","provider":"Barney's Book Sellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
