This Sacred Greek Island Hasn’t Had New Art For 5,000 Years, But That’s About To Change

VISUAL Posted: May 5, 2019 11:30 am

The Delos experiment: “In the absence of human contact – only guards and archaeologists have inhabited Delos in more recent times – the remains of a sanctuary and entire city have survived like nowhere else in Greece. It is in this unspoilt idyll that Greek authorities have undertaken an experiment as exciting as it is ambitious. At its centre is Sir Antony Gormley. The British sculptor has created 29 iron ‘bodyforms,’ several cast from his own body, that are to be the first artworks to be installed here since the outpost was inhabited more than 5,000 years ago.” – The Observer (UK)
