Some 170 works from the mid-19th century to the present day illustrate this fascinating cultural exchange. Beguiling examples of fine and decorative art reflect the diversity of this lively transfer. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e During the 19th century, Europe became caught up not only in Orientalism, but also in a real “Islamophilia”. Important collections of Islamic art were established. With the approach of modernism the view of these “foreign” influences changed. Artists of the avant-garde and masters of applied art sought inspiration for their own new style in the wealth of formal language and colourfulness characterized by Islamicate art. Positions of contemporary art to current Islamic discourse round out this multi-faceted publication. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ARTISTS INCLUDE: Nevin Aladag   Baltensperger and Siepert   Marwan Bassiouni   Carlo Bugatti   Théodore Deck   Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo   Osman Hamdi Bey   Elisabeth Jerichau-Baumann   Wassily Kandinsky   Gulsun Karamustafa   Bouchra Khalili   Paul Klee   J.\u0026amp; L.
