While the exhibition clearly focuses on the achievements of the twin fathers of modern statuary – Rodin and Picasso – it does not ignore other greats of the last century such as Max Ernst, Henry Moore, Lucio Fontana and, star of the Tate Modern, Louise Bourgeois. Although there won’t be many towering spiders at this Museo del Corso show, almost all the works on display are accompanied by fascinating preparatory sketches and paintings made by the artists themselves.
