LITIX creates a faithful replica of the Horse of Selene from the Parthenon <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The replica of the Parthenon marbles, now in the British Museum, could be the solution to the ongoing dispute between Greece and England.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The life-size copy of the head of the horse of Selene from the Parthenon in Greece, which has been in the British Museum in London since 1817, was produced by LITIX using the expertise of TORART and the robots of ROBOTOR to demonstrate how faithful replicas of classical works can be the solution to cultural disputes such as the one between Greece and England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Greeks claim the works, but the British Museum maintains they were acquired legitimately. The problem could be solved with the help of robotic workmanship. This is the dream of Roger Michel, executive director of the Institute of Digital Archaeology at the University of Oxford, with whom LITIX had already collaborated with TORART to create the copy of the Arch of Palmyra destroyed by ISIS and now for the replica of the Parthenon marbles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first reconstruction in Pentelic marble of the Parthenon sculptures was presented at the Freud Museum in London on November 1, 2022, and it was a huge success! Roger Michel of the IDA and Sir Simon Jenkins unveiled the marble reconstruction carved by ROBOTOR robots and hand-finished by TORART craftsmen \u2014 precise to a fraction of a millimeter \u2014 to an enthusiastic crowd of journalists, artists, academics, and diplomats. The precision of the copy of this iconic sculpture was immediately evident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The national and international media coverage was massive and immediate, with the story of the inauguration covered by BBC, ITV, Sky, ABC Culture, Reuters, AP, The Times, The New York Times, National Geographic, Times Radio, and major newspapers and TV stations worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the major Greek national newspapers reported the story on their front pages: Ta Nea, Kathimerini, Greek City Times, Europost, Neakriti. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Greek ambassador to the UK, Ioannis Raptakis, stated that this solution provides the government with a \u201cunique opportunity\u201d to return the sculptures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGreece is willing to lend the British Museum cultural treasures that have never left the country \u2013 the ambassador told the newspapers \u2013 or explore the idea of allowing the British Museum to create a high-quality marble copy not only of the sculptures it holds but also of those of the Parthenon in the Acropolis Museum in Athens.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is thanks to the quality of LITIX\u2019s work that a previously unthinkable discussion has been opened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the great advantages of using robots is the ability to work 24\/7 without any human supervision. In 2020, TORART sculpted one of Canova\u2019s most famous works , Cupid and Psyche, the sculptural group that the neoclassicism master took five years to complete in 1793, in marble in just over 10 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, thanks to LITIX, reproducing a work of art from the past is possible with sustainable costs and timeframes, allowing more people to enjoy the artwork.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
