    the same charming places, this comment reinforce the view of the city as an empty experience there is no meaning in visiting it.

    Decaires Taylor; however, Auguste Rodin and Janet Laurence are two of the most interesting artists to explore in the way that they created life through sculpture. “Sculpture is... the most diverse and evolving artistic medium.” (Leaper, C. (2003)) Although both artists use sculptural methods, they interpret life very differently.

    Auguste Rodin has a number of awe-inspiring pieces, ranging in medium, size, and location. Outside the massive cluster in Paris, they pop up in the most unusual places, such as Philadelphia, Seoul, Tokyo, and Raleigh. What is even more interesting is that many of Rodin’s pieces were designed to be part of a single great piece, a massive pair of doors, intended for an art museum that grew into something much more. This piece is Rodin’s Gates of Hell. The gates are particularly significant to the world

    towards a person? Some say you'll know the meaning of love when you fall in love, yet some don't believe in love at all. The sculpture “LOVE” created by Robert Indiana and the sculpture “The Kiss” made by Auguste Rodin both share some of the same meanings behind the art work (Indianapolis Museum of Art) (Rodin's The Kiss Sculpture).

    all of the art stolen was definitely a dark spot. Most people don’t realize, but the art was taken from all Jews and many others by the Nazis. Some pieces of art have been found, but most still remain lost. Many that have been discovered are in museums and are not given to the true owners.

    The Museum Experience One of my favorite things to do when traveling in a new city is to visit the museums. I have never been to a city that did not offer the usual museum fare, usually in the form of the “Anytown Art Museum”, or the “Anytown Museum of Natural History”.
