Auguste Rodin's erotic female studies represented a completely new approach to art and at the time, were considered indecent. More than 100 of these little-known drawings, taken from museums and private collections, are brought together in this book, including the notorious Weimar drawings.
Much of Auguste Rodin's work defied traditional artistic conventions but out of the public eye, he took a further decisive step towards modernism in a different genre. His erotic female nude studies, created during the final two decades of his life, represent a completely new approach to art - one that freed itself from previous ideals of beauty and from existing concepts of morality. The work was considered to be indecent at the time. When a small collection of the drawings was shown in Weimar, the director of the museum was dismissed. More than 100 of these little-known drawings, taken from museums and private collections worldwide, are brought together in this book for the first time, including the notorious Weimar drawings. In her introductory essay, Anne-Marie Bonnet describes the conditions in which the drawings were created and traces their influence on avant-guarde art in the 20th century, from Duchamp to Yves Klein.
