The first famous ekphrasis goes back to Greek Antiquity: this is the description Homer gives of Achilles? shield in the Iliad. The weapon was forged by Hephaestus so that ?everyone should be amazed?.00If the rhetorical exercise of ekphrasis presents itself as an ancient practice, the genre has been used throughout the ages with remarkable continuity, with many famous writers exploring it. Conversely, many artists have also been inspired by reading ekphrases, like Botticelli, who produced a canvas based on a description from Antiquity.00In fact, there is a great tradition of artists who have concerned themselves with both the visual arts and literature, poetry or politics, and for whom language is a constituent element of their work. The exhibition explores through the contemporary artists gathered here the issues raised and various preferred modes of the use of language in visual art.00Exhibition: Boghossian Foundation - Villa Empain, Brussels, Belgium (24.10.2019 - 09.02.2020).
