The exhibition is an excellent opportunity to closely admire a series of objects that illustrate some 1000 years of artistic production, from the 9th to the 19th century, representative of a broad geographic area extending from Spain to Indonesia. It is also an opportunity all the more relevant given that many of these objects will only be shown to the public again when the Aga Khan collection is reunited, in 2011, in a purpose-designed museum in Toronto.
