Join us for a private, guided tour of famed British sculptor Antony Gormley's first major exhibition in France, as he takes over the Musée Rodin, undeniably one of Paris's most iconic cultural institutions. Aptly titled Critical Mass, this captivating exhibition sprawls across the museum's vast spaces, including the temporary exhibition area, gardens, the Marble Galerie as well as the Hotel Biron.
Let yourself be carried away as our English-speaking tour guide leads us through this meticulously curated exhibit showcasing key works spanning Gormley’s 40+ year artistic career. Immerse yourself in his work as it explores the human body's relationship with space - from its early focus on the artists's own body to his more recent examination of its interaction with architectural structures. Marvel at over two hundered notebooks revealing four centuries worth of drawings and records of observations, ideas and musings. Experience the compelling dialogue between Gormley's sculptures and those of Rodin, prompting contemplation on the artists' shared fascination with the body's role as both subject and tool in sculpture.
Register now for a last chance to witness this extraordinary temporary exhibition before it concludes!
