The Art of Passion and Creativity: The Performance "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" Performed by the B. Eifman Ballet Theatre
We are pleased to offer you a unique and exciting event - the performance "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" performed by the Eifman Ballet Theater. The ballet will be held on February 4 and 9 at the Alexandrinsky Theater.
This amazing performance tells the story of the passion and creativity of the great sculptors Auguste Rodin and Camille Claudel. Their sensual and creative unity lasted 15 years, but an unhappy separation led to a tragic outcome. Claudel, separated from the world, suffered and died, left forgotten and alone.
The ballet "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" is a heartfelt creative work about the genius and mystery of the creative process. In it, Boris Eifman uses the unique plastic language of modern psychological ballet to convey the complexity and drama of the union of two artists.
The art of ballet carries the story of Rodin and Claudel, their passion, love, jealousy and despair. It is the embodiment of the deepest phenomena of the human spirit, which the famous sculptors reflected in their masterpieces. In this performance, we will transfer a moment frozen in stone into a stream of emotions and body movements.
We invite you to join us in feeling the price that geniuses pay for creating immortal works and to learn the secrets and torments of their creativity. Buy tickets for the performance "Rodin, Her Eternal Idol" (B. Eifman Ballet Theater) on February 4 and 9 at the Alexandrinsky Theater on our website. We will be glad to see you at this unique production!
