Story, Silence and the Present Imagination

A wide ranging discussion about the questions raised by the sculpture, Shadows of the Wanderer.

This large sculptural group recalls the tale of Aeneas, who carries his father, Anchises, from the ruins of Troy. It also resonates powerfully with present-day issues, particularly the displacement of people.

The panel includes Karen Armstrong, Ana Maria Pacheco and Xavier Bray.

The evening will be chaired by Neil MacGregor, director of the British Museum.
