Hajj: Journey to the Heart of Islam
- ... that the British Museum's 2012 exhibition Hajj: Journey to the Heart of Islam included textiles from the Kaaba (example pictured) that were described as bringing "a visceral artistic buzz to the display"? Source: "The famed Islamic collector Nasser D Khalili has also lent a selection of the sacred cloths in which the Kaaba is bedecked for the Hajj, and these shimmering, wordy textiles finally bring a visceral artistic buzz to the display."

- Extended interesting article, on fine sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed and almost a must. I suggest to add "to the display" at the end of the quote, as in the source. How do you feel about an infobox (event)? As it is, it looks like an article about a specific piece of art. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:21, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks Gerda. Infobox added and quotation extended (in both the article and the hook) as requested. MartinPoulter (talk) 19:26, 16 December 2022 (UTC)
