Is it in early Islamic art at the end of the first ten Christian centuries, when late classical Greco-Roman, ancient Near Eastern, and Central Asian art forms become neo-archaicized, medievalized, puritanized, Islamicized, and neo-classicized, that we can see, for the first time, a sequence of series of art forms evolving into existence, free from interferences of images, meanings, users, etc. and taking their own good time and timelessness about it?
