Beijing-born Wang Keping is the first artist ever to be welcomed by the Rodin Museum to use its grounds as his personal open-air atelier. Visitors are invited to observe him at work in a magnificent setting from now until June 5, 2022.

"For much of his life in Mao’s China where art was strictly controlled, Keping had no idea that sculptures even existed as an art form, only paintings. His discovery of Rodin’s sculptures with their sensual forms, in particular of the female body, was life-changing." - Barbara Pasquet James
