Paris’s Rodin Reinvents

“Big changes are afoot at the Rodin Museum in Paris. There is a new and more spacious entrance on the Rue de Varenne, and a new and more generously stocked bookshop. Orientating oneself through the gardens and into the main body of the museum in the Hotel Biron feels less bemusing than in the past. What is more, a new director, Dominic Vieville, has just been appointed, and the museum’s 19th-century chapel, closed for restoration for almost a decade, has reopened as a space for twice-yearly temporary exhibitions.”
