British Museum should return the Parthenon Marbles

In an article published today in the Daily Mail sculptor and former trustee of the British Museum, Sir Antony Gormley said The British Museum should return the Elgin Marbles to Greece and make Africa the 'absolute core of the museum'.

The sculptor, who was one of the museum's trustees from 2007 to 2015, also called for the institution to detach from its 'obsession with the classical world'.
