Family Tours of the Jeff Koons: Venus Lespugue Exhibition at Museum of Cycladic Art

The Museum of Cycladic Art in Athens is organizing special family tours for its ongoing 'Jeff Koons: Venus Lespugue' exhibition. The tours, scheduled for three Sundays in April, May, and June, are designed for parents and children aged 8-12 and will explore both the Koons exhibition and the museum's permanent collection of Cycladic art.

The tours aim to create an intergenerational dialogue about art, connecting Jeff Koons's contemporary 'Balloon Venus Lespugue (Orange)' sculpture with ancient Paleolithic 'Venus' figurines and Cycladic marble statuettes. This programming highlights how contemporary artists like Koons engage with historical artifacts and demonstrates the museum's effort to make art history accessible and relevant to younger audiences.
