Pompeii and the Roman Villa focuses on the richness of cultural and artistic life in this region. The exhibition includes works of art from Roman villas, as well as works from the luxurious houses of the elite in Pompeii, whose very name conjures up ancient Rome and other towns along the bay of Naples. The objects for this exhibition were carefully selected and include approximately 120 works of sculpture, painting, mosaic and luxury arts, some of them long-familiar, others generally unknown to the public. The exhibition also includes recent discoveries from around the Bay of Naples that have never before been exhibited in the United States. This exhibition focuses on the influence of Classical Greek culture around the Bay of Naples, where wealthy Romans displayed impressive art collections in sumptuous homes. Deadline: August 8, 2009.
