Application of th Venice Charter in the Restoration of the Parthenon - Too much intellect, too little emotion?

Abstract

In this article the writer has made comparisons between the ongoing restoration of the Parthenon and the Venice Charter which was written in 1964. The conclusion is that advanced technology has given way to anastylosis with the help of new materials like the titanium. This difficult project serves as a model to many other restoration works, also in Scandinavia.
