The Islamic world, spanning centuries and far-flung regions, is renowned for its diverse
cultural and artistic traditions. This sumptuous book delves into that vast creative
output, examining a dozen exquisite objects in the Museum of Islamic Art, in Doha,
Qatar, designed by the Chinese-American architect I. M. Pei and opened in 2008. Twelve
prominent scholars from across the globe select works representing various centers
of Islamic life, from early Spain to 17th-century India, as well as a range of media
including textiles, ceramics, metalwork, and miniature paintings. Authoritative texts
put the objects into context, exploring the relationships to those people who produced
and lived among them. In addition, architectural critic Paul Goldberger discusses
the museum, assessing its place in Peiʹs career and in the broader scope of Islamic
architecture, while Oliver Watson, the museumʹs former director, sheds light on the
installation of works throughout the building. -- Publisher description
