Description
Sculptures by two impressive artists, both inspired by Rodin, emerge from the shadow cast by their great role model: the works of Camille Claudel (1864-1943) and Bernhard Hoetger (1874-1949) paved the way for sculpture to enter the modern age. The artistic freedom of the avant-garde including the emerging Art Nouveau can be seen in new forms and ideals.
What links the art of Claudel and Hoetger? Following their joint exhibition in 1905 in the Galerie Eugene Blot in Paris, a hub of the artistic avant-garde, this volume unites once more the works of the two artists some 120 years later. The lavishly illustrated publication presents the encounter between the two sculptors in the French art scene at the dawn of the modern age. Their experimentation with new materials and techniques enabled them to break out of the established patterns of artistic creativity.
