Report of the conference organized by the New York University Center for Dialogues: Islamic World-U.S.-The West
Brooklyn, New York, June 6–7, 2009.
“Bridging the Divide Between the United States and the Muslim World through Arts and Ideas: Possibilities and Limitations” was an academic, cultural, and policy conference that brought together approximately 50 artists, producers, religious and community leaders, scholars, curators, and policy makers from the Muslim world, the United States, and Europe. Discussions focused on three broad themes: the “World of the Artist,” which examines artists’ place in the Muslim world and their access to audiences and venues; “Art and Social Commentary,” which considers art’s power to transform artist and audience as well as its capacity to offer social commentary and political critique; and “Cultural Exchange,” which investigates how cultural capital can be harnessed to encourage dialogue and engagement across cultures, and suggests new arenas for cultural diplomacy.
