| Kurzbeschreibung
Picturing Islam explores the interaction of religion, nationalism, ethnicity, globalization, and identity politics through the life and work of prestigious Indonesian artist, Abdul Djalil Pirous. Noted cultural anthropologist Kenneth George relates the captivating story of Pirous's pursuit of a political, religious, and artistic identity as it emerged over the course of modern Indonesian history. While providing a rich portrait of a Muslim artist, this text also contributes to a deeper understanding of the impact of nationalism, Islam, and globalization on the cultural politics of Asia's postcolonial art world.
