At the beginning of the 20th century, the Orient beganto loose its importance as a cultural paradigm in Western art. The Post-Impressionist artists Kandinsky. Macke, Matisse, and Picasso regarded the Orient in a new light and integrated exotic elements in their works, this time developing an abstract visual vocabulary to express the ideal essence of art. At the beginning of the 21tst century the Orient has developed beyond the object of Westren projections and established its own voice and visions for the region. The Orient in Western Art presents the emergence and development of an artistic motif accompanied by explanations of social and cultural history.
