LINES OF SITE
The Museum of Classical Archaeology is currently showing a selection of highly contemporary works by artist Debbie Loftus which explore the resonance of the Parthenon frieze’s innumerable missing pieces. Around 80% of the original frieze has survived to this day, but it is its fractures and absences that interest Loftus and inform her romantic creations in this exhibition, Lines of Site . The display is open from 28 January until 28 March and admission is free. classics.cam.ac.uk
