Why are the advancements of Greek architecture & sculptures important to our life and world today?
Well, a large amount of architecture today that is considered ‘stylish’ is based on Greek Architecture. For example, the British Museum uses Doric columns similar to those used to adorn the Parthenon. This is probably intended to show that the museum is a place of intellect and learning (something which relates to education, first perfected in the Golden Age). Sculpture is more difficult to place. There is the fact that Classical sculpture of the age is considered the epitome of art, and has influenced a number of artistic trends up to today.
