There’s a Rodin statue over at the Mayo Clinic Art Gallery here in Rochester, MN. I stop to look at it every time I pass through. I can’t get enough of it.

I have seen a couple of great Rodin exhibitions and the thing that always strikes me is that he’s kind of obsessed with people’s hands and feet. They’re always disproportionately large in his sculptures and I’m always a bit distracted by wondering why he focused on them so much.

I far prefer the works by Camille Claudel. They are wonderfully eloquent and seem to have a life of their own.

I was lucky enough to visit the Rodin museum in Paris a few years ago. He is absolutely one of my favorite artists!
