    “I have lots of new ideas that would please you enormously (…) I'm greatly enjoying working (…) As you can see, it’s no longer anything like Rodin (…)” These few lines from a letter written by Camille Claudel to her brother in December reveal her current state of mind.


    Break-up with Rodin

    Camille Claudel distances herself from Rodin and isolates herself in her work, exasperated by even the most laudatory critics, who hasten to connect her work with that of her master.  She would never cease to distance herself, to underline her uniqueness and autonomy.  She embarks in new directions and begins her “sketches from life” series inspired by everyday subjects.

    Nevertheless, Rodin, at the height of his career, would continue to discreetly support her both financially and within the art world.

    In late , Rodin rents the Villa des Brillants in Meudon, to which he moves with Rose Beuret. He would become the owner of the property in

    This is a portrait of Rodin's assistant and lover, Camille Claudel, a sculptress in her own right. Auguste Rodin's career maps the progress of 19th-century art, from the Romantic revolt against Neoclassicism, to the radical enquiry that paved the way for the Modernist developments of the 20th century. The V&A's collection of works by Rodin is unique in that they were given by the artist, to represent his art in Britain and commemorate British soldiers fighting in France in November In this bust Rodin has deliberately left the seam lines created by the piece moulds used in the casting. This is characteristic of his desire to challenge existing concepts of beauty and ‘finish’.

      Camille Claudel is an artist who suffered from never being considered as such.

      During her lifetime, she does not sell a lot and Rodin brings her financial support.
      At a time when women are struggling to find a place in the world of sculpture and in Arts in general, critics and patrons are not interested in her.
      She is often accused of copying vulgarly Auguste Rodin, without looking at her personal approach.

      Today, Camille Claudel enjoys some recognition without having an eponymous museum (a Camille Claudel museum is planned in Nogent); her artworks are scattered in many institutions, in France and in the world and, as a snub, also in the Musée Rodin in Paris.

      MARTINE CHAPERON, ART WITH BODIES

      Born in Grenoble in the heart of the Alps, Martine Chaperon was born with a paintbrush in her hand.
      A vocation she affirms by starting training in Fine Arts in the Isère capital before launching truly into paint.
      She called her first painting "Birth" and thus beginning the artist's life.
      Passionate by feminine curves and masculine musculature, she admires the work of Michelangelo as much as the one of the couple Auguste Rodin - Camille Claudel.

      Martine Chaperon loves indeed to represent an emotion through exhaustion, in different formats, using different materials and different techniques.
      She works with materials and transparencies in layers using acrylic and vinyl binders and uses, according to her moods, dry and oil pastels, watercolor and graphite.
      She does not seek to represent the body to perfection.
      She exhibited her wounds and scars as life testimonies from perfect beauty.
