Rodin! The Complete Stanford Collection December 14, 2010

The Cantor Arts Center expands the display of Rodin's work, with the Center's entire collection of Rodin's bronzes, plasters, and waxes on view. The majority of the collection remains on the ground floor, occupying the south rotunda, much of the present Rodin gallery, and extending into a second major gallery. One gallery includes youthful works, a rotating selection of works-on-paper, and objects directly associated with the "Gates of Hell." In the new second gallery, sculptures are divided thematically, either by project ("Burghers of Calais," for example) or subject (portraiture, mythology). This new installation better serves students and visitors by making the smaller works as immediately accessible for study as the large scale works that remain perpetually on view in the B. Gerald Cantor Rodin Sculpture Garden adjacent to the museum.
