FLYING TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN - JAMES CAHILL GEBU...

The first major survey to reveal the ways in which Classical mythology has inspired art
throughout the last 2 500 years From the films of Woody Allen and the Coen Brothers to Margaret
Atwood's books and Arcade Fire's songs  Classical Greek and Roman myths continue to be a source
of cultural inspiration. The struggles of heroes  both triumphant and tragic  with gods 
monsters  and fate  exert a particular grip on our imagination. Visual artists have long
expressed and reworked these foundational stories. This is the first book to unite
myth-inspired artworks by ancient  modern  and contemporary artists  from Botticelli and
Caravaggio to Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst.
