brief introduction

A famous French sculptor. 1840165438+1October 12 was born in a poor Christian family. his

My father is a police messenger and my mother is a poor civilian woman. Rodin loved art since he was a child, but all his other classes were terrible. With the support of his sister Mary, his disappointed father had to agree to send him to the Paris School of Arts and Crafts. His sister Mary paid for his room and board with the money she earned, so Rodin loved her deeply since she was a child. At the age of 65,438+04, he studied painting with Leconde Bois Baudrin, then studied sculpture with Beye, and served as Behles's assistant. He went to Brussels to create decorative sculptures for five years. He visited Italy from 65438 to 0875 and was deeply inspired by Michelangelo's works, thus establishing realistic creative techniques. His works, such as The Bronze Age, The Thinker, Hugo, Citizen of Calais and Balzac, all have new creations and have been criticized by the French academic school. The design of Hell's Gate, including 186 sculptures, was not realized as planned due to the obstruction of the official at that time, and only some works such as The Thinker, The Kiss and Eve were completed. He is good at creating vivid and powerful artistic images with rich and varied painting techniques. He has made many sketches in his life, and his style is unique, and his artistic theory has been passed down from generation to generation. Rodin's position in the history of European sculpture is just like that of the poet Dante in Europe. Rodin and his two students, Mayol and Budel, are called the "three pillars" of European sculpture. For modern people, he is the last sculptor in the old period (classicism period) and the first sculptor in the new period (modernism period). He left one foot in the classical courtyard, but the other foot has crossed the threshold of modernism. It can be said that Rodin opened the door to modern sculpture in the new era with his mature and powerful hands tempered during the classicism period and his creative spirit that was not bound by tradition. When the young artist rushed in and ran forward, he was old and could not walk. His creation has a great influence on the development of modern European sculpture. Auguste Rodin

Rodin's life is a life of being attacked and ridiculed, and also a life of being understood and supported by others. But he always faces all this correctly with great personality. Rodin climbed all his life and finally reached another peak after Michelangelo. Rodin firmly believed that "art is emotion". All his works have proved this concept and profoundly revealed the rich feelings of human beings. Rodin prefers tragic themes and is good at discovering contribution and beauty from fragmentation, which makes his art have profound and profound character. He initiated a brand-new era and created a brand-new artistic technique. The ideological and spiritual charm embodied in his works will always bring people a profound sense of beauty and inspire people to keep thinking.

all one's life

Rodin King's Art and Craft School was founded by Madame de Pompadour's favorite painter Bessie Lier in 1765, where students studied the art of binding and painting. Here, he met Horace Lacock, the first teacher he admired in his life. Lacock is an ordinary art teacher, but he encouraged Rodin to be faithful to the real artistic feeling from the beginning, instead of following academic dogma. Perhaps it was this teaching that influenced Rodin's life. During this period, he often went to the Louvre to copy the famous paintings of the masters. Unable to afford oil paints, Rodin transferred to a sculpture class and fell in love with sculpture. Lecocq also introduced him to the famous French animal sculptor Baye (Barye 1796 ~ 1875), which gave him a good basic training. After three years of hard and diligent study, Rodin is full of ambition and ready to enter the Paris Academy of Fine Arts. Lecocq introduced Rodin to the famous sculptor at that time (Hippolyte Maindron1801~1884) and asked him to sign Rodin's application for admission as a referee, but it was useless and Rodin lost the election. I still lost the election the next year. In the third year, an old host simply wrote next to Rodin's name: "I have no talent in my life, and it is a waste to continue applying." In this way, the future European sculptor was rejected by the Paris Academy of Fine Arts forever. This is a heavy blow to young Rodin who is eager to become a sculptor. A bigger blow followed. Rodin's beloved sister Mary entered the monastery because of lovelorn love. Two years later, her weak spirit and body could not bear the frustration and cold life, and she died of illness. Rodin's spirit completely collapsed under this double blow, and he resolutely embarked on the road of his sister and became a monk. However, Rodin's strong body provided him with endless desires, among which the desire for creation ignited an uncontrollable flame in an artist's heart, which made Rodin, who was equally devout to God and art, fall into inner contradictions and pains. Emma, the kind and wise abbot, saw Rodin's thoughts from his depressed expression. He created conditions for Rodin to have the opportunity to paint and carve. When he saw that Rodin was really talented, he persuaded Rodin to return to the secular world, continue his sculpture career and "serve God with art". This encouraged Rodin. With a soothing and grateful heart, Rodin made a statue for Dean Emma in the monastery. This statue shows that Rodin, 23, has the insight, skills and skills to become a sculptor. Rodin's portrait

Rodin returned to Laycock and, with his help and support, began a career of self-study while working. Unable to afford a model, he hired a flat-headed beggar named Bibi as his model. The ugliness of the beggar made Rodin see sadness and desolation on his gaunt face, and at the same time he thought of Michelangelo, a lonely sculptor who worked hard all his life. Therefore, the beauty and ugliness of life and art have different meanings in Rodin's eyes. When he creates, he pays attention to the expression of light on the surface of his works, and integrates the ideological connotation he wants to express into his works, making sculpture a powerful language, and people's thoughts and feelings far exceed their visual feelings. This artistic concept is exactly what the master Michelangelo pursued in his later years, and it was first shown in Rodin's The Man with the Broken Nose more than 300 years later, and it has been the source of their soul and charm all their lives. In fact, Rodin's great achievements later were more due to his diligence and eagerness to learn. He gets up before dawn every day, goes to an amateur painter's house to sketch for a few hours, and then rushes to school. Come back from school at night and go to the museum. At that time, there was a class in the museum devoted to painting human bodies. He will paint there for two hours. In addition, he will take time to go to libraries and museums to observe and study ancient sculptures. Rodin is studying and working against the clock. He said, "In order to keep my work going, even for a second, I have to work 14 hours every day." Rodin is very good at learning from others. One day, he carved plants on a pillar. He was very satisfied with the carved flowers and stems, but he was always dissatisfied with the leaves. After carving, repairing and carving, it is not satisfactory to grow old again and again. At this time, a craftsman named constance looked on and couldn't help saying, "Rodin, don't always carve in one way, so the leaves look flat and lifeless." ..... You make the tip of your blade stick out at you, so it looks charming. "Rodin was very happy. He was greatly encouraged and did as constance said. Sure enough, the leaves of plants are flexible and vivid. Thinker

Rodin is not only a master of sculpture, but also a great teacher. His students or assistants, even if they only had contacts, were deeply influenced by Rodin in art, but Rodin, as a teacher, never bound his students from the artistic point of view, so his students all matured and stood out, forming their own unique style. They learn from Rodin's creative spirit, so many of them are excellent, and some of them will become famous teachers in the future. Rodin's life is a life of being attacked and ridiculed, and also a life of being understood and supported by others. But he always faces all this correctly with great personality. Rodin climbed all his life and finally reached another peak after Michelangelo. Rodin firmly believed that "art is emotion". All his works have proved this concept and profoundly revealed the rich feelings of human beings. In this respect, Rodin is the most outstanding master of romantic sculpture. But his greatness lies in his profound thoughts: he does not have the disadvantages that are easy to see in romanticism, such as superficial enthusiasm, empty exaggeration and false connotation. He prefers tragic themes and is good at discovering strength and beauty from breaking. This makes his art have profound character, touching and inspiring, and makes us wander in the waves of the soul, the meaning of life, the mystery of the universe and the magic of creation. From this point of view, Rodin surpassed romanticism, sects, times and regions and became a bright star in the historical galaxy. He sympathized with the working people at the bottom, loved the motherland, and devoted his life to the persistent pursuit of art and thinking hard about all kinds of pains in life. He initiated a brand-new era and created a brand-new artistic technique. The ideological and spiritual charm embodied in his works will always bring people a profound sense of beauty and inspire people to keep thinking. Rodin's works

Rodin's theory of art and technology is beautiful in the eyes of artists, because his sharp eyes focus on the core of all living things; If we can find out its character, we can go deep into the modeling and touch its inner "truth". This "truth" is also "beauty". -Rodin The fountain of life surges from the heart; Flower of life is open from the inside out. Similarly, in beautiful sculptures, there is often a strong inner tremor lurking. This is the secret of ancient art. -Rodin The virtues of an artist are only wisdom, concentration, sincerity and will. -Rodin The source of art lies in the inner truth, and your shape and color must convey emotions. -Rodin The most important thing is to feel, love and hate, hope, sing and live. To be an artist, you must start with people. -Rodin's Evil is Dry. -Rodin Life is not a lack of beauty, but a lack of eyes to find beauty. -Rodin Rodin's artistic theory is a scientific summary of the history of European sculpture, as well as a concise summary of personal experience, which runs through Rodin's reverence for his predecessors, his outstanding views on famous works and his joy in creation, and his deep thinking and introspection on himself. At that time, Mr. Fu Lei taught in Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, and translated this book into an "aesthetic lecture" for students, in order to have a clear understanding and discussion on the form and spirit of fine arts masterpieces before involving pure aesthetics. Re-editing the color book closely follows the master's conversation, and integrates more than 200 famous works of art with the conversation, which is more conducive to the appreciation and understanding of famous works. Here is just a brief introduction to this book. Gao Jiawen suggested that you buy one, because you can read slowly by the bed and smell the book. There are many beautiful pictures in it, and the paper quality of the page is also very good. In addition, in order not to damage the original, Gao Jiawen is unwilling to scan, because it is easy to damage the book by flattening the book when scanning the picture. ...

Chronological life

1900 auguste rodin held an exhibition in Paris, which established his reputation as a sculptor. His main contribution is to restore the western sculpture's understanding of people and the expression of the spiritual world, and he is considered as the greatest portrait sculptor in the history of sculpture. From 65438 to 0864, Rodin studied sculpture from the famous animal sculptor Louis Beye, and made rapid progress because of his hard work. Later, he studied painting in the Louvre, known as the "Little Academy of Fine Arts". The owner of the studio is Albert Ernest-Garie-Bells, a famous master of decorative sculpture during the Second Empire. After a period of study, Rodin has the conditions to become an excellent sculptor. Before the age of 35, Rodin's personal style has not been determined. 1875, Rodin visited Italy and praised the great Michelangelo, which had a great influence on his later creation. 1878 Rodin's exhibition "Bronze Age" caused a lot of discussion. Many people refuse to admit that it is a work of art because it is so realistic that it is based on real people. This gave Rodin a great shock and made him start thinking about the performance of his works. He thinks that extreme approximation is nothing new, which is not conducive to expressing profound thoughts and feelings. Therefore, Rodin's later works are vivid and full of inner spiritual breath. His masterpiece "The Gate of Hell *** 186 Form" lasted for 37 years and was not completed until his death. Among them, The Thinker and The Kiss were enlarged and became world-famous masterpieces independently. Rodin's other major works are: Hell's Gate (1880-19 17), Adam (1880) and Eve (188 1 7). 19 17165438+1October17 French sculptor Rodin, master of European traditional sculpture for more than 2,000 years and creator of new sculpture in the 20th century, died.
