Contemporary Palestinian art has its origins in folk art as well as traditional Christian and Islamic artwork that has long been popular in Palestine. Nationalistic themes have predominated since the Nakba of 1948, as Palestinian artists use a variety of media to express and explore their connection to identity and land.
