BARBARA HEPWORTH

Though little known in France, Barbara Hepworth — who frequented artists such as Henry Moore, Picasso and Mondrian — evolutionised sculpture with her development of a new aesthetic sensibility. Her abstract works, imbued with poetic purity,
aspire to an ideal, peaceful world. The Musée Rodin’s tribute exhibition to Hepworth will present these sculptures, with their combination of solid and void; visitors who see these compelling artworks will find them hard to forget.
