Abstract

The women of Allah. An anthropological research conducted through the eye of a perceptive artist, Shirin Neshat. Explores and studies the role of women and veils in Islam and in Iran. Disorienting as it is the research has a new look at an old question are the islamic women more slaves than their "free" western counterpart? This is far from the case. The idea of the islamic woman as a passive object of desire is a pure expression of an ethnocentic prejudice.
