How did the religion of Islam affect the art produced in the Muslim world? This module will explore
problems of iconoclasm in a wide context that includes pictures of the Prophet Muhammad, the conflict
between orthodox Islam and Sufism and Shi'ism, and the Muslim treatment of Old and New Testament
themes. Since the most obvious physical expression of Islam as a faith is in architecture, the module will

The module thinks critically about the ways in which contemporary artists working during the past three
decadeshaverepeatedlyapproachedtheirpracticeasaformof'fieldwork'thattakesplacebeyondthewalls

using interviews, surveys, research, and documentary processes - and at a conceptual level to address
globalisation, neo-colonialism, ecology, and gender politics, and to develop social art practices that
ostensibly aspire to intervene in particular communities. We will analyse how artists working in film and
photography, together with social art practice, community-based work, and performance have been
particularly drawn to the social sciences, considering the problematic as well as generative aspects of this
overlap. While focussing on contemporary art, the module looks back to the complex histories of artistic
overlap with anthropology and ethnography, and the way in which these have been continued and
confrontedinrecentcuratorialanddisplaystrategies.
