City of Toronto All Events http://ift.tt/1WNw9K2 Real and mythical creatures leap off the pages of legends, tales and fables in Persian, Arabic, Turkish, and Urdu in a new family-friendly exhibition. This richly imaginative exhibition presents creatures of air, water, fire, and earth in a breathtaking variety of artworks from the 7th to 21st centuries. Featuring manuscripts, textiles, ceramics, jewellery, glass, and metalwork — in addition to sculptures and mixed media works by contemporary Lebanese artist Mohamad-Said Baalbaki — the exhibition proves the enduring fascination with these creatures across many cultures and shares the stories that first brought them to life.
