exhibition · 2026-04-27

The Archaeological Museum of Catalonia in Barcelona offered a 90-minute nude tour of the photographic exhibition 'I Bronzi di Riace. Lo sguardo artistico di Luigi Spina'. Organized in collaboration with the Catalan Naturist Club, the event attracted men and women who viewed the works completely naked, including the guide. The exhibition by Italian photographer Luigi Spina marks the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the Riace Bronzes. It previously was held at the Museo Regionale di Reggio Calabria and now travels to Barcelona as part of the 30th anniversary celebrations of the Center for Underwater Archaeology of Catalonia, coinciding with the exhibition 'Naufragi. Storia sommersa' focusing on Mediterranean underwater heritage.
