A True Sculpture is worth a Million words

444.  From the 11th October to the 1st January 2018, the Mapfre Foundation in Barcelona will be hosting some unique pieces of famous French Sculptor Rodin. François Auguste René Rodin  as born on 12th November 1840  and died on 17th November 1917. Sculpturally, Rodin possessed a unique ability to model a complex, turbulent, deeply pocketed surface in clay. Many of his most notable sculptures were roundly criticized during his lifetime. Rodin's most original work departed from traditional themes of mythology and allegory, modeled the human body with realism, and celebrated individual character and physicality. Rodin was sensitive to the controversy surrounding his work, but refused to change his style. Successive works brought increasing favor from the government and the artistic community.
By 1900, he was a world-renowned artist.
Wealthy private clients sought Rodin's work after his World's Fair exhibit, and he kept company with a variety of high-profile intellectuals and artists. Amongst his most famous works are: The Gates of Hell, the Thinker or my very favorite: The Kiss.
