Medusa with the Head of Perseus

Italy

Medusa with the Head of Perseus is a sculpture created by Luciano Garbati in 2008. The statue depicts Medusa holding a sword and the head of Perseus, a role reversal of Greek legend. A bronze cast version was displayed in Collect Pond Park, Lower Manhattan from October 2020 to April 2021. Although it was not created as a feminist work, it was later adopted as a symbol by some in the Me Too movement.
