Η σχετική ανακοίνωση έχει ως εξής:
Experience the brilliance and diversity of ancient
Greek art in this major exhibition focusing on the human body.
For centuries the ancient Greeks experimented with
ways of representing the human body, both as an object of beauty and a bearer
of meaning.
The remarkable works of art in the exhibition range
from abstract simplicity of prehistoric figurines to breathtaking realism in
the age of Alexander the Great. These works continued to inspire artists for
hundreds of years, giving form to thought and shaping our own perceptions of
ourselves.
‘The chief forms of beauty are order,
symmetry and clear delineation’ - Aristotle
‘In portraying ideal types of beauty… you bring
together from many models the most beautiful features of each’ - Socrates
