The Louvre Sculpture Museum in Mie Prefecture exhibits replicas of famous sculptures that can be seen in its Parisian museum. The replicas number about 1300 and include Venus de Milo, Napolean's death mask, and Michelangelo's slaves.
Everything is dangerous, and in one minute our lives could be transformed immeasurably regardless of our economic or educational status, ethnicity or gender. Disasters define our humanity; as French author Marcel Proust wrote: “Disaster puts one in touch with oneself: suffering fuels creativity.” However, in a morbid way, disasters do unify us as a people, and unfortunately, tend to be more unifying than art.
