has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.
Detalle en relieve de una pintura islámica, siglo XVII.
El arte del libro islámico incluye tanto la pintura, la encuadernación, la caligrafía y la iluminación. Es decir, arabescos y dibujos en los márgenes y en los títulos. Las imágenes religiosas del profeta Mahoma, de Jesús y del Antiguo Testamento así como de los imanes, tambien dieron lugar a representaciones que, según épocas y lugares, tienen el rostro velado o no.
La cuestión de la representación figurativa en el Islam es aún hoy muy compleja.
How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the path of sinners,
Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!
But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in its season
And its leaf does not wither;
And in whatever he does, he prospers.
PSALM 1
