Summary

In Greek mythology, Prometheus is the Titan who dared steal fire from the gods. The spark he snuck from the sun gave man the ability to produce fire and create light, and thus began his capacity to develop the arts. Imagining Prometheusunfolds a meditation on the phenomenology of light by a philosopher, an archeologist, and a Greek scholar, as well as by artists from five continents, including Shirin Neshat and Robert Wilson.
