Ever since publication of Owen Jones' Grammar of Ornament, geometric pattern in Islamic art has been characterized in the West as decorative and ornamental, and considered non-representational in relation to figural arts. If one delves into the discourse of classical Islamic philosophy and theology, one finds intersections among mathematics, metaphysics, and forms of visual expression. This presentation explores the relationships of number and shape in what we call two-dimensional patterns and three-dimensional space, arguing that geometric forms of expression are culturally significant in Islamic art. This significance, expressed visually in the arts, also likely contributed to the profound impact of Islamic thought on European intellectual development.
Lorraine Declety studied history at the École nationale des Chartes and Islamic art at the École du Louvre, Paris. After her DEA on the subject of orientalist architecture in 19th century Paris at the École pratique des hautes écoles in Paris, she is pursuing her PhD on orientalist architecture in 19th century France and Germany at the European Graduate College, Dresden-Paris.
This presentation will focus on the making of Islamic architectural history in Germany and France in the 19th century. It will concentrate on accounts and their authors, the paradigms they used as well as their illustrations. The comparison will allow me to show how, despite important methodological and theoretical differences, those accounts contributed to create a dominant discourse on Islamic architecture and to organize aa strict hierarchy. It will also lead us to question the validity of the link between knowledge and power.
Sultan Bahu was a Muslim Sufi and saint, who founded the Sarwari Qadiri sufi order. His Punjabi sufi poetry has been very popular especially in Punjab and has been performed by many artists in form of kaafi and qawalis. One of the distinguishing feature of Sultan Bahu's Kalaam is the word 'hoo' or 'hu' coming at the end of his verses, which has a strong ecstatic effect on the audience and is considered as a means of spiritual connection to the divinity.
