The ancient Roman Empire, an empire whose relative longevity and breadth stands as a major accomplishment in the history of mankind. This exhibition of unparalleled scope and range features approximately 120 fascinating works from the collections of the Naples National Archaeological Museum (Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli) and other museums throughout Italy.
Saturday 19 September – Sunday 13 December 2009
This exhibition introduces approximately 50 works on the subject of Rome by Hashi (Hashimura Yasuomi) who is based in New York and active worldwide. The works created with "HASHIGRAPHY", Hashi's unique technique, surpass the function of an ordinary photograph that simply freezes a single instant of reality. These works vividly project the unfailing fascination of eternal city of Rome, inviting each and every one of us on an unending voyage through time.
