In addressing the subject of the representation of Islam in
museums, this work undertakes to examine both its production and
consumption. The production of representation and the creation of
identity are achieved in museums through the medium of the display
of material, whilst consumption occurs through the medium of
visiting and the meaning made by visitors. In order to evaluate
such production displays of Islamic material in museums are the
subject of critical analysis. This research has a qualitative
element and seeks to tap into the perceptions of museum visitors of
current museum displays. Given the role played by museums in the
construction of identity the questions underpinning this are
firstly, what are the messages they receive about the world of
Islam and secondly, what do these displays say about the Islamic
world past and present?
