- Abstract :
- Discusses the troubled renovation projects of the new Acropolis Museum, Athens, which was scheduled to open in time for the 2004 Olympics there, but due to various construction delays and controversies, will open in spring 2007. Predicts that the combination of good architectural design and curatorial planning will ultimately prevail, possibly resulting in the return of the Elgin Marbles to Greece. ;
