    Rodin – Rilke – Hofmannsthal. Man and His Genius

    January 17, 2018 / 0 Comments

    Exhibition: Rodin – Rilke – Hofmannsthal.  Man and His Genius Date: Nov 17, 2017 − Mar 18, 2018 Venue: Staatliche Museen zu Berlin “Writers work with words, sculptors with actions.“ — POMPONIUS GAURICUS: DE SCULPTURA (circa 1504) “The hero is he who is immovably centered.” — RALPH WALDO EMERSON Rodin was solitary before he was famous. And fame, when it arrived, made him perhaps even more solitary. For in the end, fame is no more than the sum of all the misunderstandings that gather around a new name. There are many of these around Rodin, and clarifying them would be a long, arduous, and ultimately unnecessary task. They surround the name,…

    Rodin at the Met: A Kéz Hatalmát

    November 8, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Dátum: 2017. Szeptember 16. — 2018. Január 15. Múzeum: The Met Fifth Avenue, USA AUGUSTE RODIN APárizsi Szalon éves kiállításán 1898-ban, Auguste Rodin bemutatja két nagyméretű szobrát, A csók és a Balzac című alkotásokat. Rodin 58 évesen sikerei csúcsán áll. Ezek a művek arról tanúskodtak, hogy a művész a közelmúlt szakmai és magánéleti megpróbáltatásai után (nagy szerelme, Camille Claudel röviddel ezelőtt vetett véget kapcsolatuknak) töretlenül mer tovább álmodni. A csók ölelkező párja eredetileg a Musée des Arts Décoratifsnak a francia kormány által megrendelt monumentális kapuja – a Pokol kapuja néven vált ismertté – egy darabja volt. 1898-ra azonban már világossá vált, hogy a múzeum tervéből nem lesz semmi, jóllehet Rodin már…

    Rodin en el Met: El Poder De Las Manos

    Fecha: 16 de Septiembre de 2017 — 15 de Enero de 2018 Museo: The Met Fifth Avenue, USA Auguste Rodin Si miramos atrás, desde la escultura de la Edad Media hasta la Antigüedad, y desde ahí hasta los orígenes del tiempo, oeno parecería que el alma humana siempre hubiera anhelado, particularmente en momentos decisivos, un arte que ofreciera más que palabra e imagen, más que parábolas y apariencias, que reflejara sus deseos y ansiedades? La última gran época de la escultura fue el Renacimiento, una época en la que la vida experimentaba una renovación, cuando el misterioso rostro de la humanidad fue descubierto de nuevo; un tiempo que hizo posibles los…

    Grande Exposition: Rodin at the Met: Le Pouvoir des Mains

    November 3, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Date: Sep 16, 2017 — Jan 15, 2018 Lieu: The Met Fifth Avenue, USA Auguste Rodin En 1898, à l’exposition annuelle du Salon de Paris, le sculpteur Auguste Rodin présente deux imposantes statues : Le Baiser et Le Monument à Balzac. Alors âgé de cinquante-huit ans, il est au sommet de sa gloire. Mais ces œuvres témoignent également de son courage face aux revers qu’il subit tant dans sa vie privée (sa maîtresse Camille Claudel vient de mettre un terme à leur liaison) que professionnelle. En effet, le couple enlacé du Baiser devait, à l’origine, être réalisé à plus petite échelle pour figurer sur une porte monumentale commandée par le…

    A chocolate-Thinker? Count me in for the Grand Reopening of the Musée Rodin in Paris!

    November 9, 2015 / 0 Comments

    It was a ruin when he lived there, then nearly ruined by millions of trampling tourists after his death. Now the Musée Rodin has been playfully vamped up – and it’s even got a giant chocolate tribute to France’s most famous sculptor The once shabby mansion in Paris where the sculptor Auguste Rodin worked until his death in 1917, reopens to the public on 12 November – and it is now so chic, warm, accessible and elegant that the artist would surely have been astonished. The splendid high-ceilinged rooms and strengthened floors of this, the Hotel Biron, are full of sculptures once more – not just Rodin’s work, but sculptures…

    Rodin, das Fleisch, der Marmor.

    December 14, 2012 / 0 Comments

    Dieser Titel weckt in mir das spontane und immense Verlangen nach einem gut gebratenem Beefsteak, außen scharf angebraten, innen zart rosa und in der Mitte noch etwas blutig, das ganze mit Salz und Pfeffer gewürzt – ein Genuss. Viele Vegetarier und Veganer, die meinen größten Respekt, aber auch mein Unverständnis haben, werden auf dieses Verlangen eher mit Abscheu oder Ekel reagieren. Fleisch ist generell ein viel erforschtes und heiß diskutiertes Thema. Isst man es oder isst man es nicht? Und wenn ja, ist zu viel rotes Fleisch ungesund? Wie kann ich mich ausgeglichen ernähren. Aber die entscheidende und meistumstrittene Frage überhaupt: Wie bereite ich ein gutes Stück Fleisch zu? Und…

    Living Marble Masterpieces

    December 11, 2012 / 0 Comments

    I grew up about an hour outside of Philadelphia – a hub of culture, art, and United States history. Being introduced to the arts and science (I still, in my late twenties, love to touch things in the Franklin Institute) at a young age, Auguste Rodin’s sculptures are amongst my earlier memories. I always stared at them the longest and hardest, waiting for them to breathe. You should also know I stood quite a distance away because works like Adam (bronze, modelled 1880-1881) are fairly frightening for a ten year old. It’s said that marble is the most flesh-like material; naturally cold and hard, it needs to be warm and…
