The Arabesque

The name of Arabesque is an original Arabic word appeared on manuscripts and on miscellaneous pieces of art and named by it and is distinguished by showing drawings and unrealistic innovative inscriptions and are often inspired by the Arab aesthetic.

Word of Arabesque was used to signify the recitative lines in the simulation graphic as used in ballet to signify the movement of one leg to form a harmonious flow of movement and was used in music with this meaning as likening the rhythm of the melody in Arab drawing lines.

Abstraction is an expression of the absolute Abstraction is a legacy of old forming but in Islam has become more in line with the monotheistic creed which warns drawing of living organisms for fear of God to emulate his creation and the Muslim artist moved his view to disclose in the arabesque for the cosmic essence absolute making the drawing physically linked to the instincts and tendencies not the ideals and values and the Arab abstraction seeks to express the absolute.

Indications of Arabesque.

The Arab arabesque linked to sensory perception which is a formula of dealing with the reality Formula that is not material based on the freedom of the artist to read the actuality as intuitive reading and transfer it in an abstract aesthetic form and leaving the right of interpretation means that there are many meanings in Arabic arabesque waiting for interpretation which gives the abstract in the arabesque a non-specific value expression.

The Indications of Arabesque Look clear in two methods the first method is the <<securitization>> and based on the interpretation of the plant to the limits of the symbolic formulas the critics often link this repetition to the <<mystic>> and the second method is <<Floss>>which is based on geometric shapes they are receptacles for the content of symbolic meanings which are not free of the Sacredness or mystical or existential whether the arabesque is engineered or vegetarian it remains to attempt to express the kingdom of God and faith in him and is closer to celibate aesthetic more than the free decoration and distinction between the two is that the system of geometric arabesque overlaps according to the projections of visual cosmic rays while the arabesque plant looks through the symbols of nature to reach the earthly paradise and aesthetic pleasure and it is a drawing transcend the identification and relative comparison it is also not the practice of mathematical science it is a creativity spiritual formation (converting the symbol to something) this is what distinguishes the arabesque which is a particular language carries deeper meanings and it is like a poetry bears all the characteristics of weight rhythm and melody.
