Rodin: Muses, sirens, lovers
Exhibition July 12 − December 8, 2019
In the 1860s, when Auguste Rodin began creating sculptures, art was deeply rooted in the past and depicted stories from religion, history, and myths. By the beginning of his career in the 1890s, Roden turned sculpture into something that evokes emotions and imagination. By the time Roden died in 1917, he, thanks to his tremendous talent and remarkable work volume, made a revolution in sculpture. Today, his work is the most important link between traditional and modern art.
