Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

The art, which included plaster carvings, tile , and manuscripts incorporated many geometric designs which placed emphases on symmetry. These forms of art and architecture became known as the mudéjar style, but also became blended with the overarching idea of "Spanish revival" architecture. In this way, many architects around the world incorporated elements of mudéjar art and architecture to construct buildings, such as those in Los Angeles like Powell Library at UCLA and the Shrine Auditorium in Downtown Los Angeles.

It was over the course of these 800 years that Muslims incorporated parts of their Arab Muslim culture into that of the Peninsula and its inhabitants, especially in Southern Spain where the Muslim rulers centered their power. How can we recognize these influences today? #Muslim, #Architecture, #Hybridity, #Moorish, #Mudéjarimage_header2023-08-10T14:36:56-07:00Adelmar Ramireza4bf3b19b77c9f4b12cc64aa3ed1a273dcebf85a
