The Rediscovery of Antiquity - The Role of the Artist

The latest volume of Acta Hyperborea, which appeared in the late fall of 2003, includes articles, which are the revised versions of papers presented at a conference in Copenhagen in September 2001. The participants were classical archaeologists, art historians and artists. The anthology is divided into four main themes: artists use of ancient models; forming ideas and shaping taste; artists and patrons; and, creating collections.
