Overview

The film “Short stories of restoration” created by the Acropolis Restoration Service (YSMA) to accompany the photographic exhibition “Chisel and Memory: the contribution of marble craftsmanship to the restoration of the Acropolis monuments” which was hosted at the Acropolis Museum. The film uses footages of the audiovisual archive of the YSMA and the personal testimony of marble technicians who took part in the works, to shed light to the everyday life in the worksite, the contribution of marble craftsmen to the restoration works, and the emotions that they experience and share during the interventions.
