An exhibition entitled "Byzantium - Masterpieces from Greek Collections" is set to travel to the US in the autumn of 2013, where Americans will be able to view over 300 masterpieces from Greek museums (public and private collections) as well as get an up close feel on various archaeological finds from recent excavations. The event will first be displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, followed by the J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Villa in Malibu, California. The aim of the exhibit is to familiarise the American public with the Hellenic civilization throughout the Byzantine era, and as such will cover the period 330 AD to 1453 AD otherwise known as the Byzantine era. This event will be enhanced by a second, equally significant, exhibition being prepared by the Greek government in collaboration with National Geographic magazine.
