SOUND BITES: THE HONORARY PRESIDENT OF THE LOUVRE AND CURATOR OF THE EXHIBITION, JEAN-LUC MARTÍNEZ (IN FRENCH).TRANSLATIONS:- This exhibition is not about archeology, although exceptional archaeological objects from the archaeological museum of Delphi or Delos are presented. It actually tries to understand how this ancient culture became a young nation-state with modern artists, painters, sculptors, who had to invent a style to make Greece a modern European country.- We present - in an exceptional way - one of the three iconic pieces of El Greco preserved in Greece, before his departure to Venice, before 1567. It was an incredible work, signed, something that is quite surprising.
