City-zen 'Nicosia' Roadshow - Site Specific EVENT
The City-zen Roadshow's are 'site specific performance based' interactive events that bring together experts and city stakeholders 'onsite' to co-creatively design a future sustainable vision for their city. There would be nine European Roadshows over a four year period, the duration of a Roadshow being typically between 3 to 8 days.
The City-zen Roadshow travels with a team of internationally recognized experts, in the field of energy planning and design to help develop a sustainable agenda for cities and their neighbourhoods. The overall aim of the Roadshow team was to work closely with people from the hosting city, whether they be city leaders, energy planners, local architect, professionals, academics, students and citizens.
In Nicosia, the Roadshow spent 8 days delivering energy and urban design fun-shops to local stakeholders from both sides of the political and geographical divide in order to encourage 'Bicommunal' city and island participation and peace. Outcomes would allow the cities resources, both people and energy, to be directed effectively, by highlighting the energy challenges and potentials to be found in their neighbourhoods, and to finally present a sustainable ‘City Vision’
Elgin Marbles: East Pediment
Right side, detail of three goddesses; "Elgin Marbles" is a popular term for the collection of sculpture from the Parthenon acquired by Lord Elgin in Athens between 1801-1805. The collection includes other works from the Acropolis as well. The Parthenon sculpture includes roughly half of what now survives: 247 feet of the original 524 feet of frieze; 15 of 92 metopes; 17 figures from the pediments, and various other pieces of architecture. The central section of the east pediment of the Parthenon showed the birth of Athena. The myth was not often depicted in classical times, although it had been popular in the Archaic period, especially on vases. The figures include the reclining god Dionysos, three goddesses (perhaps Hestia, Dione and Aphrodite), and the head of a horse of the goddess Selene.

Elgin Marbles: South Frieze
Block S15-16: Figures on horses, overall view; "Elgin Marbles" is a popular term for the collection of sculpture from the Parthenon acquired by Lord Elgin in Athens between 1801-1805. The collection includes other works from the Acropolis as well. The Parthenon sculpture includes roughly half of what now survives: 247 feet of the original 524 feet of frieze; 15 of 92 metopes; 17 figures from the pediments, and various other pieces of architecture. The Parthenon Frieze is the low relief, pentelic marble sculpture created to adorn the upper part of the Parthenon’s naos. The iconography of the procession depicted is uncertain; it may be either the Greater Panathenaic procession from Eleusis to Athens, or may depict the founding myth of the city of Athens. The following ranks W21-1 along with N75-136 and S1-61 are all of horsemen and constitute 46% of the whole frieze. By N42 and S89 the equestrian parade is at an end. S119-121 are the skaphephoroi, the tray bearers of the honeycombs and cakes used to entice the sacrificial animals to the altar. S122-149 are the four cows and four sheep on the south meant for sacrifice. Source: British Museum [website]; http://www.britishmuseum.org (accessed 6/14/2009

Battle of the Lapiths and Centaurs
Lapith is rolled back over a water-jug; "Elgin Marbles" is a popular term for the collection of sculpture from the Parthenon acquired by Lord Elgin in Athens between 1801-1805.

The Parthenon sculpture includes roughly half of what now survives: 247 feet of the original 524 feet of frieze; 15 of 92 metopes; 17 figures from the pediments, and various other pieces of architecture. The sculpted decoration of the Parthenon included ninety-two metopes (the sunken panel between two triglyphs in a Doric frieze) showing scenes of mythical battle. Those on the south flank of the temple included a series featuring human Lapiths in mortal combat with Centaurs (part-man and part-horse, thus having a civil and a savage side to their nature.) Myron of Eleutherai may have been one of the sculptors of the south metopes. Source: British Museum [website]; http://www.britishmuseum.org (accessed 6/14/2009
