In the late nineteenth century, there was no sculptor who captured the worldâs imagination like Auguste Rodin (1840-1917). Renowned for his ability to breathe into the bronze medium a sense of universal humanity and emotional truth like no artist before him, Rodin was celebrated in his own lifetime and continues to draw fans to this day. Even those who may not know the name âRodinâ know Rodinâs work his timeless Thinker and his Gates of Hell are emblems of modern art history and underline how Rodin mastered the ability to convey movement and form with a touch and style uniquely his own. Rodinâs sculptures first arrived at the Polk Museum of Art for a major exhibition in 2022, the largest showcase of sculptures in the Museumâs history. Now, fourteen of Rodinâs bronzes have returned as part of an exciting long-term agreement with the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation. The loans coincide purposefully with the Museumâs 14,000-square-foot expansion, set to open in Fall 2024, with all fourteen sculptures eventually installed throughout the space of the Museum. Admission is always free. The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10am to 4pm, and on Sunday from 1 to 5pm. The museum is closed on Sundays from June through Labor Day. The museum is closed on Mondays and major holidays.
