Rodin: Eros and Creativity

3.5/5 ( ratings)

August Rodin , whose status as the greatest sculptor of the late nineteenth century is undisputed, belongs among the few artists whose fame is based equally upon public and critical acclaim. Woman's sexuality appears in Rodin's work as both a threat and challenge, but also as the source of all creative inspiration and passion.In word and image, this volume offers fresh insight into the work of a man who, perhaps more than any other visual artist, embodied Baudelaire's and Nietzche's concept of the modern genius as one whose stature is based on a combination of inventiveness, passion, and disturbing originality.
