On May 4, 2023 in Rome, at the National Roman Museum, the exhibition “The instant and eternity. Between us and the ancients” which, through around 300 exceptional pieces including Greek, Roman, Etruscan and Italic, medieval, modern and contemporary works, explores in unexpected and spectacular ways the complex and varied relationship that we have with the ancients.

The exhibition, which can be visited from 4 May to 30 July 2023, is promoted by the Italian Ministry of Culture and the Greek Ministry of Culture and Sport (Eforia delle Antichità delle Cycladi) and bears witness to the centrality and importance of collaboration between the two States.

The exhibition event, organized by the General Directorate of Museums and the National Roman Museum in collaboration with Electa, is conceived and curated by Massimo Osanna, Stéphane Verger, Maria Luisa Catoni and Demetrios Athanasoulis, with the support of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii and the participation of the IMT High Studies School Lucca and the Southern High School.
