RETROSPECTIVE OF CAMILLE CLAUDEL
MUSEE RODIN – 15 April to 13 July 2008
79 rue de Varenne – 75007 Paris – subway Varenne (line 13)
The Rodin museum is presenting a fascinating retrospective of Camille Claudel’s work with over 80 marble, terracotta, plaster, onyx and bronze sculptures as well as engravings and drawings. A true artistic genius, Camille Claudel was however better know for her passionate relationship with the sculptor Auguste Rodin than for her work. The originality and intensity of her sculptures have since won her universal recognition as an artist… A must-see !
