“A European Museum Thriller”

The latest issue of the weekly newspaper Morgenbladet has a good article by Mari Lending on the new Acropolis Museum in Athens, which opened on 21 June, and the never-ending conflict over the Parthenon Frieze/Elgin Marbles, which the British Museum refuses to repatriate to Greece:

Politiken also had an interesting article about it the day before the new museum opened:
