The Sculpture and Color Workshop | Acropolis Museum

February 5, 2017

An experiential approach to the creation and the significance of three-dimensional art and to ancient aesthetics. Students will observe the sculptural masterpieces of the Archaic Acropolis Gallery and will examine, through various visual aids, their invaluable traces of color. They will have the chance to use their different senses to appreciate materials, colors and tools and they will discuss the role of three-dimensional art in our life. This program complements “the Lab”, where students will discover the Museum’s experimental activities and a collection of pigments.

Premise of the activity and supporting material

The Museum’s artefacts form the basis of this program. During the activity, the Museum provides the following supporting material:

  • tools for observation: special lights, magnifying glass, tool for isolated view
  • digital tablets with rich visual material, colored casts of the exhibits, displays of marble surfaces with the experimental use of ancient pigments and techniques, stable screens, a three-dimensional art workshop and collections of pigments
  • materials, tools, and replicas of ancient objects that students are able to touch

This program is carried out by the Archaeologist- Hosts on the ground, the first and the second floor of the Museum
