The ballet "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" will be presented in St. Petersburg
The ballet "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" will be shown on the stage of the Alexandrinsky Theater.
Boris Eifman's ballet "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" is dedicated to the amazing destinies and work of the famous sculptors Auguste Rodin and his student, lover and muse, Camille Claudel. Their story of passion was tragic.
For 15 years, Rodin and Claudel were inseparable from each other in a sensual and creative unity. However, their relationship was interrupted, and this breakup dealt Camille a fatal blow, which had a detrimental effect on her mental health. She isolated herself from the world, sank into poverty and lost her mind. Camille was constantly tormented by the thought that there was a conspiracy against her. Her mind, weakened by mental disorder, did not find peace. She spent 30 years of her life in a mental hospital and eventually left this world in 1943, forgotten and abandoned by everyone.
“Rodin, Her Eternal Idol” is a large-scale work of art dedicated to the tragic fate of geniuses. Boris Eifman not only explores the world of human passions that haunted Rodin and Claudel, but also creates a work about the mystery of the creative process.
