Princeton professor Michael Barry to speak at Islamic Art and Culture Forum at UTA

A forum designed to portray cultural links through symbols in Islamic art will be held at 6 p.m. Thursday.

Every semester, the Art and Art History Department hosts a forum in collaboration with the Aga Khan Council for Northern Texas, a social governance structure for the Ismaili Muslim community. This semester, the forum will focus on symbols used by Islamic kings in the pre-modern era, a time period toward the end of the 20th century.

Michael Barry, Princeton University Near Eastern Studies lecturer, will talk about visual art and royal symbols in Islamic art and culture in the Architecture Building Room 204.
