Naughty Bits

Three story-lines are brought together through their connection to a Roman marble statue of Hercules.

Now found in the Getty Museum, the Lansdowne Hercules (aka Herakles) was entirely restored when it was unearthed in Tivoli in the late 1700’s … except for one part, which was conspicuously left off. See how three different stories (in the 20s, 50s, and current day) intertwine via Hercules and his missing member.

Naughty Bits was a winner of a 2014 True West Award
