ACHILLES AND THE TROJAN WAR – 2024

Immersive artwork – immersive exhibition
ACHILLES is a monumental immersive artwork that offers visitors an experience of the myth of Achilles and the Trojan War

An ambitious artistic project based on a rigorous scientific project :
– a sharp, contemporary re-reading that draws on the most recent studies
– a spectacular presentation of ancient iconography, never before presented in this way
– the splendour of an immersive creation and the emotion of a powerful poetic narrative,
which embraces the mystery and timeless depth of the myth and brings it to life
for all members of the public, to question the link with our imagination and our culture.
