Description

Produced in conjunction with the Muse Rodin, this essential introduction examines the key works of Auguste Rodin, the pioneering French sculptor behind The Kiss and The Thinker. With rich illustrations and insightful texts, we explore the artists material processes of modeling and assemblage and his influential ideas about movement, bodily expression, and the role of chance.

Each of the books published in Taschens Basic Art series features a detailed chronological summary of the artists life and works, their cultural influence and historical significance, a concise biography and approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions.
