Exhibition: To live forever


Herald Tribune

A large collection of artifacts from Egyptian tombs may strike some as macabre, but to Virginia Brilliant, they signify the Egyptians' love of life.

Brilliant is assistant curator of European Art and organizing curator of "To Live Forever: Egyptian Treasures from the Brooklyn Museum" at the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota. The show's official opening is Saturday, although the galleries in the Ulla R. and Arthur F. Searing Wing are now open.

"The thing that I think you really get is the Egyptians really loved life, they loved their life on earth, they had a very joyous life," said Brilliant, who has overseen the installation of more than 100 objects of ancient Egyptian art.
