  • Imagining Ishmael: Introducing American Islamicism
    Cambridge University Press 052161807X - The Cultural Roots of American Islamicism Timothy Marr Excerpt More information Imagining Ishmael: Introducing American Islamicism In April of 1997, a coalition of sixteen American Muslim organizations petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to have a larger-than-life representation of the Prophet Muhammad sandblasted off the north wall overlooking the nation’s central legal chamber. The Muslim groups took offense at the ivory marble statue that depicts a robed and bearded Muhammad with a curved sword in one hand and the Qur’an in the other. Part of the original Beaux- Arts architecture designed in the early 1930s by Adolph A. Weinman, the statue stands between Charlemagne and Justinian as one of eighteen great law givers of history. The presence of the frieze in such an official location, the Muslim leaders maintained, demonstrated insensitivity to Islamic prohi- bitions against displaying images of the Prophet, and the scimitar perpetuated stereotypes about Muslims as “intolerant conquerors.” Deeply committed to removing the statue, they offered to pay the expenses for an appropri- ate replacement. Chief Justice William Rehnquist, however, rejected their request. He claimed that the figure represented an honor rather than a form of idol worship and that the sword was a general symbol of justice. He also noted that any alterations in the frieze would not only destroy the artistic integrity of the whole, but also violate a 1949 statute against the removal of statues from the Court’s property. While he agreed with the literature handed out to visitors to the Bench that the “figure is a well-intentioned attempt by the sculptor to honor Muhammad,” he nonetheless also agreed with the Muslim protesters that “it bears no resemblance to Muhammad.”1 This ivory marble Muhammad and Rehnquist’s defense of it are but recent examples of the ways in which U.S.

    ART FOR AIDS UNAIDS/07.14E / JC1312E (English original, June 2007) ISBN 978 92 9173 570 9 © Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) 2007. Contents Foreword 5 Overview 7 Art 9 UNAIDS headquarters 157 Partners 167 Foreword Dear friends: Art has always inspired me to think more deeply and question more carefully. In whatever form it takes—sculpture, painting, mixed media and more—art can express things in a way not possible with facts and fi gures, and this is especially true in the AIDS response. Art and AIDS have been inextricably linked throughout the epidemic’s quarter of a century history. Art has conveyed what words alone could not. I am especially pleased that we have been able to bring art and the AIDS response together in UNAIDS’ new headquarters. We are indebted to the artists and sponsors who have generously given their talent, time and resources to make Art for AIDS a reality. Twentieth century painter Mark Rothko said, “Art is an adventure into an unknown world, which can only be explored by those willing to take the risks.” On behalf of the UNAIDS staff and our partners, I hope the art shared in these pages inspires and challenges you as much as it has me. Dr Peter Piot Executive Director, UNAIDS ART for AIDS | art carte Overview The United Nations Joint Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) commemorated its 10th anniversary in 2006. In November 2006 UNAIDS moved into its new headquarters in Geneva, a building it shares with the World Health Organization.

  • David Hume Kennerly Archive Project
    DAVID HUME KENNERLY ARCHIVE PROJECT 50 YEARS BEHIND THE SCENES OF HISTORY The David Hume Kennerly Archive is an extraordinary collection of images, objects and recollections created and collected by a great American photographer, journalist, artist and historian documenting 50 years of United States and world history. The goal of the DAVID HUME KENNERLY ARCHIVE PROJECT is to protect, organize and share its rare and historic objects – and to transform its half-century of images into a cutting- edge digital educational tool that is fully searchable and available to the public for research and artistic appreciation. 2 DAVID HUME KENNERLY Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist David Hume Kennerly has spent his career documenting the people and events that have defined the world. The last photographer hired by Life Magazine, he has also worked for Time, People, Newsweek, Paris Match, Der Spiegel, Politico, ABC, NBC, CNN and served as Chief White House Photographer for President Gerald R. Ford. Kennerly’s images convey a deep understanding of the forces shaping history and are a peerless repository of exclusive primary source records that will help educate future generations. His collection comprises a sweeping record of a half-century of history and culture – as if Margaret Bourke-White had continued her work through the present day. 3 HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE The David Hume Kennerly collection of photography, historic artifacts, letters and objects might be one of the largest and most historically significant private collections ever produced and collected by a single individual. Its 50-year span of images and objects tells the complete story of the baby boom generation.
