Thursday 10 October 6-8pm
As Reverse Archaeology: Metamorphosis of Aphrodite enters its final days, a lucky group of just fifteen guests will have the opportunity to join exhibiting artist Marco Luccio for a special after-hours experience.
Guests will be invited into the stillness and exclusivity of the closed Hellenic Museum, taking a seat on the grand heritage landing at its heart. Here, under the dusky skylight, Marco will lead participants in a twilight life drawing session with a nude model striking classic poses: as inspired by classical Greece, immortalised by ancient sculptors, and revered by artists across millennia.
Learn to draw the human form in a series of powerful drawings and exercises, and be guided by Marco in a variety of techniques to imbue movement and power. Guests of this special evening will also have exclusive access to Reverse Archaeology, for an up-close experience with Marco’s works before the exhibition comes to a close.
Places at this event are strictly limited. Book promptly to avoid missing out.
Materials to bring
- Sketchbook – maximum size A3
