Les #TermeDiDiocleziano #MuseoNazionaleRomano exposent 18 monumentales sculptures de l'artiste anglais #TonyCragg. Si les lieux antiques sont un écrin de premier choix pour des œuvres contemporaines fascinantes, ces dernières ne bénéficient d'aucune explication. N'y avait-il vraiment rien à dire ?
Last winter, with students, we visited the Palazzo Massimo alle Terme in Rome, home to the incredible 'Boxer at Rest' bronze. I sketched it, including a flayed version.You must see it when you're next in Rome. The Palazzo holds many other masterpieces. #museonazionaleromano #boxeratrest #anatomyart
