Артбатл. Світові музеї запустили флешмоб з сідницями експонатів
Музеї світу вирішили поборотися за звання володаря експоната з найкращими сідницями. Флешмоб запустив Йоркширський музей, опублікувавши мармурову статую римського атлета з відсутнім шматком сідниці під хештегом #BestMuseumBum («Краща музейна сідниця»).
«Ця надломлена римська мармурова статуетка зображає атлета на піку форми! Вона могла б прикрасити будинок одного з багатих жителів Еборакума. Хтось відкусив від цього персика?» – йдеться у твіті музею.
Ідею підхопили інші музеї по всьому світу та почали публікувати статуї зі своїх колекцій. Тепер Йоркшерський музей запропонував зробити онлайн-виставку, а відвідувачі можуть оцінити, в якого із музеїв в колекції найкраща попа.
IT’S TIME FOR #CURATORBATTLE!?
Today’s theme is #BestMuseumBum!
This cracking Roman marble statuette depicts an athlete at the peak of fitness! It may have decorated the town house of one of Eboracum’s wealthier residents. Has someone taken a bite out of this ??
BEAT THAT!? pic.twitter.com/N3A6KYz339

Oh butt you haven't seen ours yet. We thought we'd take a crack at this week's #CURATORBATTLE with these peaches @AngleseyAbbey #BestMuseumBum. We can confirm that bottom dusting is an important part of our conservation work. pic.twitter.com/U5LZITXWPp

Museums all over the world are battling over who has the #BestMuseumBum ? We think they should stop looking and arguing because we have a winner over here on Lošinj! Who wouldn't agree our bronze #Apoxyomenos deserves the gold? @museumbums ???? pic.twitter.com/F9obBFC2Bo

Zeus’s bottom is always a real crowd-pleaser, too. This bronze cast of a statue of the Greek god dates back to c.470 BC, and is about 2 metres tall #CURATORBATTLE pic.twitter.com/t8TNdhwvhD

Throughout her life, Meila Kairiūkštytė-Balkus was interested in the topic of femininity, which is reflected in her work "Elena I". Her sculptures are naturalistic, seeking to convey real rather than idealized forms of a woman. pic.twitter.com/QJfmB9gg9z— M. K. Čiurlionis National Museum of Art (@CiurlionisMus) July 1, 2020

Hey gang, how are we doing? Exhausted and flopped on the floor face first? Or relaxed and chilled and not a care in the world about getting tanlines? ???️?
