Private viewing at the British Museum with Director, Hartwig Fischer
Rodin first visited London and the British Museum in 1881 and was hugely impressed by the collection, particularly the sculptures of the Parthenon.
In this exhibition, for the very first time, visitors will be able to appreciate Rodin’s extraordinary talent as a sculptor by showing his work alongside the very Parthenon sculptures that inspired him. This comparison will provide unique insight into the full breadth and depth of Rodin’s vision, and provide new insight into the sculptures of an artist that everyone thought they knew.
Thanks to a collaboration with the Musée Rodin in Paris, over 90 works in marble, bronze and plaster – along with some of Rodin’s sketches – will be displayed in conversation with ancient Greek art.
Pi’s private viewing, with an introduction from a British Museum curator, is made possible through the kind collaboration of the Trustees and Director of the British Museum.
Former Finance Minister of Greece
In his own words, Varoufakis was “thrust onto the public scene by Europe’s inane handling of an inevitable crisis”.
Having been elected to Greece’s Parliament in January 2015 with the largest majority in the country, Varoufakis served as Greece’s Finance Minister from January to July 2015. He resigned the finance ministry when he refused to sign a loan agreement that he believed would perpetuate Greece’s debt-deflationary cycle.
