Beauty Where It May Not Be Expected
The horrors of terrorist acts and bombings have uncovered new artistic vistas for the "west" to "discover" and study - the art history of Islamic cultures. For example, look at the huge influence the Moors had in Spain - the mysterious beauty of La Alhambra, flamenco music, pointed arches. Although their occupation was hated and fought, their artistic influence is now loved and revered. Good can appear from bad, for those who are open to it.
