SUMMARY:New on View: Islamic Figural Sculpture—Forbidden or Not?
DESCRIPTION:Although human and animal imagery\, especially in sculptural form\, is considered forbidden in Islam\, many examples have appeared throughout history. This gallery talk will highlight works in glass\, ceramic\, and metalwork\, particularly those from Iran. The objects are part of Animal Power\, a yearlong installation in the galleries of Islamic and South Asian art. \nThis gallery talk is part of our New on View series\, highlighting recent gallery installations and presenting new insights into recent acquisitions or old favorites. \nLed by: Ayşin Yoltar-Yıldırım\, the Norma Jean Calderwood Curator of Islamic and Later Indian Art\, in the Division of Asian and Mediterranean Art\, at the Harvard Art Museums. \nFree admission
