Born in 1840 and active until 1917, Rodin is often called one of the most important artists in the Impressionist movement. For those who have studied or enjoyed art, the path to appreciating Rodin can be long but rewarding.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Starting with an interest in Western American art and figures like Charles M. Russell, one might then discover artists like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/culture.org\/news\/ai-weiweis-stunning-lego-vision-a-masterful-reimagining-of-monets-water-lilies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Claude Monet<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This can lead to exploring friendships Monet had with other artists of his time, including Rodin. And it\u2019s not just about the paintings; Rodin\u2019s sculptures invite deep thinking and have been the subject of much study.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>The Range and Inspiration of Rodin&#8217;s Artwork<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/culture.org\/art-and-culture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">artworks<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on display in this exhibit show a wide range of human emotions, from hope to despair. One highlight is Rodin&#8217;s portrayal of Eve, created around 1881 but only cast for this exhibit in 1968. Inspired by the works of Michelangelo, Rodin\u2019s pieces show a deep understanding of human emotions and conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>More to Explore at the Museum<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have some extra time after visiting the Rodin exhibit, consider exploring the museum\u2019s other offerings. A permanent exhibit featuring the works of Dale Chihuly is also available and offers a different but equally enriching experience, especially for children.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Practical Information for Visitors<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Oklahoma City Museum of Art is situated at 415 Couch Drive, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102.
