Abstract
Sculpture from the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation, Los Angeles Drawings from the Musée Rodin, Paris | This exhibition is organised and made possible by the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation
The exhibition features bronze sculptures selected from the Iris and B Gerald Cantor Collection, the world's foremost private collection of Rodin's work. The works explore key themes in Rodin's oeuvre: movement in sculpture, dance, emotive human poses and gestures. Exhibition highlights range from well-known sculptures including The thinker and The kiss to figures and groups drawn from monumental works such as The gates of hell, The burghers of Calais and Monument to Balzac. This exhibition is organised and made possible by the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation. [Gallery media, 2001].
