The Artistry of Islam is a unique collaborative exhibition between the Islamic Museum of Australia (IMA) and the Turkish Museum of Australia. The exhibition celebrates outstanding examples of Islamic arts and crafts spanning hundreds of years from around the Muslim world. Captivating items on display include dazzling calligraphy, intricately-woven carpets, textiles, detailed metalwork, wood carvings and religious manuscripts. The Artistry of Islam encourages visitors to delight in the cultural heritage of Muslim peoples, and offers visitors a rare opportunity to foster a deeper understanding of Islam and its rich artistic traditions. Watch our video tour of the Artistry of Islam: Coming soon in our visiting exhibition gallery: Australian Muslim Artists 2019, from 13 September 2019.
