Attempts to make the Orthodox faith more levant to modern art groups times have resulted in the eation of lay forms of monasticism, notably the )e Brotherhood, Sotir, and the various groups rected by the Apostoliki Diakonia of Athens id Thessalonika.

Pergamene groups showing defeated Gauls are known in copies of separate groups and figures, of which the best known are the Gaul holding his dead wife and killing himself, and the Dying Gaul. These were sympathetic studies of defeated barbarians. Another major Pergamene work that has survived is the relief sculpture (now in East Berlin) from the Altar of Zeus showing the battle of the gods and the giants. This well displays the sculptor's successful portrayal of violent action and emotion, which to modern art groups eyes may seem almost melodramatic. |
