Sui Jianguo’s discus thrower
The highlight of the Asahi Shimbun Display in Room 3 is Chinese artist Sui Jianguo’s Discus Thrower, which sees the most famous icon of ancient Greek art in the national costume of post-imperial China, creating a striking yet beautiful image. With the Museum’s Townley Discobolus on display in the Great Court as part of the ‘Winning at the ancient Games’ trail, this is a unique opportunity to consider them both within the broader context of the history of sculpture.
