Published in conjunction with the Without Boundary: Seventeen Ways of Looking exhibition held at the Museum of Modern Art, February 26-May 22, 2006, this catalog showcases the diverse work of contemporary Islamic artists who live in the West. Against the backdrop of more traditional Islamic art, curator Daftari and the artists address the issue of what constitutes such art. The volume includes a foreword by MOMA's director and biographies of artists, including Shirazeh Houshiary, Mona Hatoum, and Bill Viola. Annotation 2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
