Rodin Museum History [Release]
Contact: Norman Keyes, Jr., Director of Media Relations Frank Luzi, Press Officer (215) 684-7864 [email protected] THE RODIN MUSEUM, PHILADELPHIA In a park setting at 22nd Street and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway (four blocks east of the Philadelphia Museum of Art) is one of the jewels of the city’s cultural landscape. The Rodin Museum, with its elegant gardens and stunning Beaux-Arts architecture, is the legacy of one of Philadelphia's best-known philanthropists. Movie magnate Jules Mastbaum (1872-1926) fell in love with the work of French sculptor Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) while on a visit to Paris in 1923. With characteristic energy Mastbaum spent the next three years assembling an extraordinary collection of sculpture and drawings by the artist, with the idea of establishing a Rodin Museum in Philadelphia for “the enjoyment of my fellow citizens.” While amassing his collection, Mastbaum commissioned the gifted architects Paul Cret and Jacques Gréber to design a building and formal garden on the new Benjamin Franklin Parkway, the broad, tree-lined boulevard designed to evoke another grand avenue, the Champs Elysees in Paris. The museum, simple in detail, is monumental in its conception and yet intimate in scale and feeling. The gateway leading to the garden and museum reproduces the façade of the Château d’Issy, which had been constructed on Rodin’s property at Meudon in 1907. A cast of The Thinker (1902-04) is set in a location similar to that of the one at Meudon that serves as Rodin’s headstone. The overall effect was intended to suggest the setting of Rodin’s tomb.

Like a snapshot it captures a moment in time, one that tells a compelling story that is rich in detail and resonates with meaning about the subject it represents. With this analogy in mind, we hope that as you read this account of our operations during fiscal year 2012 you will not only appreciate all that has been accomplished at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, but also see how this work has served to fulfill the mission of this institution through the continued development and care of our collection, the presentation of a broad range of exhibitions and programs, and the strengthening of our relationship to the com- munity through education and outreach. In this regard, continuity is vitally important. In other words, what the Museum was founded to do in 1876 is as essential today as it was then. Fostering the understanding and appreciation of the work of great artists and nurturing the spirit of creativity in all of us are enduring values without which we, individually and collectively, would be greatly diminished. If continuity—the responsibility for sustaining the things that we value most—is impor- tant, then so, too, is a commitment to change.

The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia
University of Pennsylvania ScholarlyCommons Anthropology Senior Theses Department of Anthropology Spring 2013 The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia Laurel Caffee Follow this and additional works at: https://repository.upenn.edu/anthro_seniortheses Part of the Anthropology Commons Recommended Citation Caffee, Laurel, "The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia" (2013). Anthropology Senior Theses. Paper 150. This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/anthro_seniortheses/150 For more information, please contact [email protected]. The Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia Abstract The Barnes Foundation presents an example of a Museum art collection that—with its move from its original Lower Merion location to Center City Philadelphia on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway—has finally achieved its (stated) goal of becoming a more accessible and open institution. However, the relocation of a museum to a more accessible location does not create instant open/public accessibility. This is an examination of the history of the Barnes Foundation, its inception, along with Philadelphia’s yearning form an additional upscale elite clientele. My goal is to evaluate the new Barnes vis-à-vis its original mission as it settles into its new facility. I examine various critical periods in the history of the Barnes including its function and mission before and immediately after the death of Dr. Albert Barnes, the fiscally embattled period following the death of Dr. Barnes successors, and the circumstances surrounding its move to its current Center City location where it has been recently relocated adjacent to another cultural jewel, the Rodin Museum. My argument is that the new Barnes Foundation museum is less about fulfilling or continuing the original mission or Dr.

Planning for Growth Benjamin Franklin Parkway
CENTER CITY: PLANNING FOR GROWTH BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PARKWAY The proposals for enhancing the Benjamin Franklin Parkway have emerged from over five years of collaborative work with the Parkway Council Foundation, the Fairmount Park Commission, the Philadelphia Art Commission and the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society. In 2003, a new conceptual master plan was prepared by the Olin Partnership. Additional design and traffic engineering work was done by Brown & Keener Bressi, Cope Linder Architects, Lager Raabe Skafte Landscape Architects, Kise Straw & Kolodner, Urban Engineers, Cloud Gehshan Associates, The Lighting Practice and Grenald Waldron Associates. The advancement and implementation of these enhancements is anticipated soon. B.
