Daniel Arsham's Eroded Classical Sculptures at Perrotin Paris

Daniel Arsham presents 'Paris 3020' at Galerie Perrotin in Paris, featuring eroded reproductions of classical masterpieces such as the Venus of Arles from the Louvre and the Bust of Caracalla from the Vatican Museums. The artist gained privileged access to the cast collection of the Réunion des Musées Nationaux – Grand Palais to create these pastel-hued sculptures, which appear eroded by time, revealing minerals and crystals within. The exhibition runs until March 31, 2020, at 76 rue de Turenne. Arsham, born in Cleveland in 1980, explores the endurance of objects and their transmission through time, engaging with the collective imagination of Western classical art and questioning its future and role in the present.
