Khamseen is pleased to announce “The Futures of Islamic Art History: Remapping the Field,” a project supported by the Getty’s Connecting Art Histories initiative. The project includes three travelling seminars to Istanbul (2027), Kuwait City (2028), and Kuala Lumpur (2029), which will bring together an international cohort of graduate students and early to mid-career scholars who will benefit from this network well beyond the project’s duration. Besides group discussions, object presentations, on-site conversations, and the building of lasting international networks, the results of the travelling seminars will include filming of content that will be made accessible free of charge to international audiences on Khamseen’s website. This aspect of the project increases further connectivity and openness, while also fostering continued intellectual exchange across linguistic and geographic barriers.
