A New Exhibition at the Gibbes Museum

Rodin: All the Truth of Nature

At the peak of his career, Auguste Rodin was regarded as the greatest sculptor since Michelangelo. He rejected nineteenth-century academic traditions that dictated what was ‘proper’ in art and instead transformed sculpture into an art that conveyed the vitality of the transformed sculpture into an art that conveyed the vitality of the human spirit. Rodin declared “Any artist worthy of the name should express all the truth of nature, not only the exterior truth, but also, and above all, the inner truth.”

All the Truth of Nature will feature fourteen of Rodin’s extraordinary bronze sculptures on long-term loan to the Gibbes thanks to a partnership with the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation and the Iris Cantor Trust.

The exhibit is on view February 27, 2026 through to January 17, 2027.
