At the Metropolitan Museum in New York, there are two perfect copies of the Bronzi di Riace. Actually, no: they are just like they were when they had been made. First of all, they are in colors, rejuvenated, free from all those marks that time and the sea where they were found 50 years ago left on them. Every warm shade of their bronze shines and glows: they are elegant, well-built, their muscles firm, just like they had been conceived to be.

The exhibit offers a beautiful opportunity to discover them. It gives a form to our imagination, it offers us knowledge we didn’t have, just like a 3D headset does when we stand in front of the ruins of a Greek temple. Technology recreates it for us, adding columns, pedestals, beams, and even paintings.
