This book is the first complex study of Islamic art which is growing in the Muslim regions of Russia today. The author presents her own theoretical conception defining the peculiarities of modern Islamic art of the peoples of Russia in the context of the current Russian culture. This study is made at the crossroad of theoretical ethnology and art criticism. S. Chervonnaia is a well known Russian ethnologist.
