LONDON, May 21 ― Alluring, warrior-like or nurturing, goddesses and other female spiritual beings from around the world are the focus of a new exhibition at the British Museum., it includes ancient sculptures of Roman goddesses Venus and Minerva and Egypt’s lioness-headed goddess Sekhmet, as well as modern images of deities worshipped today.

The exhibition, which runs until September 25, also features commentary from high-profile figures including the feminist writer Bonnie Greer and classicist Mary Beard.

For a section called “Magic and Malice” about witches and demons, the museum consulted a collective of practising British witches called Children of Artemis. “Those relationships have been really important, to ensure we are looking at a living tradition in an appropriate way.”
