A fascinating look at how Classical sculpture inspired Rodin and his work Rodin, famous for The Thinker and The Kiss, was captivated by the sculptures of Classical antiquity and he constantly reworked and assimilated the forms of ancient Greek and Roman art in his own work. Rodin visited the British Museum for the first time in the summer of 1881 and there greatly admired the sculptures of the Parthenon. Before he saw the originals, he was already acquainted with plaster casts of them displayed in the École des Beaux-Arts, Paris. The Parthenon sculptures continued to be a major influence on his own work and he visited them frequently on his return visits to London. He also amassed a huge collection of fragments of ancient sculpture that served as a great source of inspiration. An introduction to this volume, published to accompany an exhibition at the British Museum, by Hartwig Fischer, the Museum's director, reflects on the internationalism of the Parthenon sculptures and their global reach, and essays by the curators of the exhibition tell the story of their reception in the modern era, and chart the lifelong relationship between these sculptures and Rodin. The works featured are arranged thematically, with sections on Rodin's Parthenon, Truth to Nature, the Monument, the Fragment and Motion and Emotion. The book includes examples of Rodin's drawings as well as his sculpture.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. A richly illustrated exploration of how ancient Egyptian art stirred Rodin's imagination and inspired his sculptureCelebrated as one of the fathers of modern European sculpture, Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) created expressive and emotive human bodies in works that abandoned narrative and embraced the subject and materiality of his medium. While his revolutionary approach to the body broke from neoclassical tradition, he revered the works of antiquity, in which he saw the truest expressions of nature. Rodin was particularly enthralled by the art of ancient Egypt, amassing a collection of more than 1,000 Egyptian objects. Rodin's Egypt-the companion volume to an exhibition at New York University's Institute for the Study of the Ancient World-reveals the profound influence Egyptian art had on Rodin's work and the advent of modernity in European sculpture.Illustrated with some 120 color images, the book traces Rodin's antiquity collecting; places masterpieces by Rodin in dialogue with Egyptian sculpture, statuettes, and reliefs; and reveals Rodin's conception of the human form as a logical continuation of ancient Egyptian artistic canons. The book also illuminates how Rodin's work provides new perspectives on the body in ancient Egypt, enriching conversations on corporeality across the centuries.Contributors include Élisabeth David, Bénédicte Garnier, Dimitri Laboury, Alessio Delli Castelli, Faustine Boulay, and Carl Walsh.Distributed for the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World at New York UniversityExhibition ScheduleInstitute for the Study of the Ancient World, New York UniversityNovember 19, 2025-March 15, 2026.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. Rodin, famous for The Thinker and The Kiss, drew energy and inspiration from the art of Classical antiquity, and he absorbed and assimilated the models of ancient Greek and Roman art in his own work in innovative ways. The Parthenon sculptures in particular were a great source of inspiration. He encountered them first in books, plaster casts in the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and some originals in the Louvre, and then drew them first-hand on several visits to the British Museum. He amassed a collection of antiquities including many fragments of marble sculpture, which he regarded as complete objects in themselves. In his own work he introduced the idea of the headless, limbless torso as object of art in its own right, much influencing his contemporaries. Rodin and the art of ancient Greece brings together all these elements for the first time. It tells the story of the reception of the Parthenon sculptures in the modern era, as well as Rodin's continued engagement with them throughout his life. The works featured, encompassing a great range of Rodin's sculptures and drawings together with select sculptures from the Parthenon and Rodin's own collection, are explored thematically, shedding new light on the life and art of one of the greatest and most radical sculptors of the modern age.…
