Product Details

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Among the other three volumes in Shambhala's series is Perfect Harmony: Sufi Poetry of Ibn `Arabi, which pairs the poetry of the 13th-century Sufi mystic with contemporary calligraphy by Hassan Massoudy. In a moving afterword, Massoudy explains how he became involved in calligraphy as a child, and how his work is inspired by poetry.

Review

" Ibn 'Arabi's impassioned poetry, a dizzying testament to love as a transcendent experience, is uniquely sanctified through Massoudy's sweeping characters and burning desert colors." — "NAPRA Review"

5.0 out of 5 stars a treasure, Nov 11 2002
By A Customer
This is a beautiful marriage of word and art, word in art, and divine revelation through intimate encounter with poetry. The calligraphy that meets the word creates a fire bed of understanding within you. At points while reading/experiencing this beautiful book I had to stop, lay down, and close my eyes. Such passion is generated and released within this short work. I love the picture of the calligraphor in the back of the book, very simple and authentic, at work in front of a huge shelf filled with glass jars of paints and colored powders. Thanks to Mr. Massoudy for letting Ibn Al-Arabi swirl through his work in all his rich, vibrant love-drenched wildness! WOW! Get this book! Keep it close!
