Private Guided Tour at the Museum of Cycladic Art

Jeff Koons: ‘Venus’ Lespugue

The Museum of Cycladic Art invites you to a private guided tour to  the exhibition “Jeff Koons: ‘Venus’ Lespugue”, a unique curatorial project that brings Paleolithic art into dialogue with contemporary art. Exploring the significance of the Venus figure from the Paleolithic period to the present day, the Museum presents Balloon Venus Lespugue (Orange) (2013-2019) of the international acclaimed artist Jeff Koons, loaned from the Homem Sonnabend Collection marking the first public display of the artwork, in dialogue with ten Paleolithic “Venus” figurines, through certified copies of the immovable originals housed in major European museums. The exhibition explores the female form from the Paleolithic era to contemporary art, proposing a dialogue that spans more than 40,000 years of human creativity
