TabulaRasa Electronic Baha’i Arts magazine No’s 2 & 3, 2007
 |
Tabula Rasa is an emerging electronic magazine focused on the arts in the broadest sense of that word. The magazine is Baha’i inspired but not overtly so, the emphasis is on the art. The most recent issue however has an article of interest to historians. Matthew Weinberg has an article, "Rediscovering Edwin Scott: The Baha’i Faith’s First Significant Western Artist" . Edwin Scott was part of the Paris Baha’i community and would have interacted with both Shoghi Effendi and Abdu’l-Baha. One of his "students" was Alice Pike-Barney, mother of Laura Clifford Barney who later married Hippolyte Dreyfus themselves stalwarts of the Paris Baha’i Community. Tabula Rasa is also distinguished by its broad content from across the globe and a similarly generous notion of what constitutes artictic expression. Look out for it.
