Carpets from the Orient

Guest curator Hans-Gunther Schwartz, a professor in the German Department, organized this exhibition of Persian carpets (from Caucasus between the Caspian and Black Sea, from Turkoman tribes of central Asia and from India, Pakistan and Turkey) to explore the history, techniques and varieties of carpet-making in the East.  The carpets were on loan from private collectors in Halifax, Dartmouth and Montreal, and from institutes in Montreal and Toronto.
