| Description |
The relationship of Israel to Islam as reflected in the art of this region. All exhibits portray a clearly-defined identity, along with an open attitude towards others. The perpetual strain and tension reflected in them is interpreted as evidence of both dichotomy and common ground. Introduction and in-depth essay. No itemized listing. |
