Rodin: Marble as Flesh
Given this “Italian Connection”, so important in Rodin’s work, is only fitting to have an exhibition in Rome – the house of his artistic forebears- thaf aims to bring into focus the importance of the sensual and sensorial pleasure in the work of the French master. A man with a broken nose, a couple that kisses with an intensity unrestrained by any mythological excuse (we are looking at you, Canova): the flesh, the body and the unabashed beauty of its pleasures are the great themes of this exhibition.
The exposition will be open from February 18 to May 25, 2014 at the Terme di Diocleziano, just around the corner from Yes Hotel and a couple of blocks away from Hotel Des Artistes.
