Named the Deutsche Bank Artist of the Year for 2013, Imran Qureshi
combines traditional motifs and techniques of Islamic art with
contemporary reflections on the relationship between Islam and the
West. His investigations into ornamentation reference both the
miniature painting of the Mughal tradition, in which he was
trained, and large, site-specific installations in architectural
space, which address both the building itself and its historical
and political meanings. In May 2013, Qureshi will create the latest
rooftop installation for the Metropolitan Museum. This volume
discusses the specific interplay between the artist's vision and
the particulars of the space for which the work was created. An
interview with Qureshi highlights the traditions from which his
work derives, as well as the political and aesthetic connotations
that inform this latest creation.
