Uninterrupted Fugue offers a selection of critical essays about the art of Palestinian artist Kamal Boullata, covering 40 years of his career. Written by an international constellation of critics, art historians and museum curators coming together for the first time in one book, they reveal a wide range of analytical perspectives on the unfolding of abstract art in exile.
Readers interested in contemporary art beyond the Western canon will find in this lavishly illustrated book rare insights into an aesthetic where frontiers are crossed between verbal and visual expression, between modernity and traditions rooted in Byzantine and Islamic art.
