Beschreibung
Explore the expressive power of Auguste Rodin (1840-1917), the French sculptor who revitalized a centuries-old medium and laid the foundations for modern sculpture. This pocket guide introduces Rodin's life and career while revealing what to look for in his animated surfaces, fragmented bodies, dramatic poses, emotional intensity, and remarkable ability to suggest movement in bronze, marble, plaster, and clay. Discover how he drew inspiration from Michelangelo, literature, mythology, and close observation of the human form. Biographical details, memorable anecdotes, a personal portrait, and revealing quotations illuminate his working methods, ambitions, and often-controversial reputation. A spotlight on one of his defining masterpieces examines its creation and enduring impact. Featuring more than 65 full-color reproductions, this compact volume offers an accessible introduction to an artist who transformed sculpture into a profoundly modern language of thought, passion, and physical presence.
