Deviant Ornaments

Emerging from the expanding field of Islamic art history, Deviant Ornaments brings together historical and contemporary works from across the Islamic world to produce a more global understanding of sexuality. This catalogue begins with an essay by external curator Noor Bhangu, followed by thematic essays by Dr. Anjali Arondekar, Dr. Andrew Gayed, and Dr. Laura U. Marks. The essays are accompanied by an interview with Oslo-based activist Rana Issa, a section on terminology, and curatorial texts on exhibited artworks.
