Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

ANCIENT GREEK SCULPTURE

This course examines an important category of Greek art, the sculpture in the round and in relief, from the Archaic till the end of the Hellenistic period about 30 BC. The students, who will have already attested the core module “Visual Cultures of Classical Greece”, will now study thoroughly specific issues concerning the use of sculptural works as cult images, as votive offerings, as grave monuments and as part of architectural settings. Emphasis will be given to the original sculpture kept in the Athenian museums with the most rich and valuable collections around the world; a great advantage that we are going to exploit.

Note: The course includes visits to the National Archaeological Museum of Athens, the New Acropolis Museum and the Piraeus Archaeological Museum, as well as the Collection of Casts in the University Museum.
