In the spring of 2018, the Musée Rodin will be highlighting Rodin’s links to the world of dance with an exhibition featuring the famous “Dance Movements” series, never shown in the sculptor’s lifetime, and a selection of some fi fty drawings.

Rodin’s fascination with dance will be illustrated by his encounters with the dancers of the time, such as Isadora Duncan, Loïe Fuller, the dancers of the Cambodian royal ballet and the Japanese dancer Hanako. A selection of outstanding works including sculptures, photographs, drawings and antiquities will immerse visitors in a world of grace and poetry.

Curator: Christine Lancestremère, Curator of Cultural Heritage
