Philip Colbert in Pompeii: Pop Mythology
Pompei (NA)
From July 27 to November 30, 2026, the Archaeological Park of Pompeii and the sites of Greater Pompeii host 'Philip Colbert in Pompeii: Pop Mythology', a widespread exhibition that brings the pop imagery of British artist Philip Colbert among the most famous excavations in the world. Thirty imposing lobster-shaped sculptures, the iconic alter ego of the artist, invade the Forum, the domus, the Temple of Isis and other spaces of the park, creating a visual short circuit between the contemporary mythology of consumption and the myths of Roman antiquity. The garish colors and playful forms of Colbert's creatures stand out against the millennia-old ruins, inviting reflection on the eternal tension between sacred and profane, art and commodity. The exhibition also touches Oplontis, Stabiae and the Antiquarium of Boscoreale, transforming the entire archaeological area into an open-air museum where contemporary art dialogues without mediation with history.
