\u201cThe master\u2019s thoughts, even his writing, are clear to see. It is a work that no apprentice, no retouching has dishonoured. It is the sculptor\u2019s initial emotion, his true work, his soul\u2019s soul.\u201d<\/em> Mathias Morhardt (speaking about <\/strong>The Tragic Muse)
\n<\/strong>As the father of modern sculpture, Auguste Rodin (1840\u20141917) showed the way to the leading artists of the twentieth century. Although certainly making an impact in the way he focused on the fragment and the importance he attributed to leaving a work unfinished, he also breathed new life into the medium by introducing the idea of the evanescent and the accidental.
\nRodin was happy to take advantage of the results of pure chance and to let elements that had nothing to do with any personal initiative help him create his intended effect. The accidental became part of the creative process.
\nThe exhibition on which this book is based took advantage of the extraordinary involvement of the Mus\u00e9e Rodin to explore a new theme through some twenty-four sculptures gathered around The Tragic Muse<\/em>, donated to the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Art et d\u2019Histoire of Geneva by Rodin himself.<\/p>\n
