Acropolis Museum Features New Exhibition of Ancient Greek Art From Italy

The Acropolis Museum in Athens is celebrating its 17th anniversary with a new exhibition titled "Inspirations. Ancient Greek Art living in Italy," running from June 16 to August 30. The show features 38 rare masterpieces—including ceramics, bronzes, and marbles—on loan from Italian museums, curated into seven thematic sections that trace Greek cultural influence on Italy from the 8th century BCE through the 20th century. Highlights include the Krater of the Amazons, the bronze Zeus of Ugento, and the marble Apollo of Cirò Marina. Admission is free, and the exhibition is presented in Greek, Italian, and English.
