Hopefully not egregiously off-topic...and maybe a little early but if you are planning a trip next year...
Augustus Saint-Gaudens in The Metropolitan Museum of Art - June 30, 2009–October 12, 2009
The Metropolitan Museum of Art has some 45 sculptures by Augustus Saint-Gaudens (1848–1907), the American Beaux-Arts sculptor who
worked in New York, Paris, and Cornish, New Hampshire. The Museum’s collection fully represents the range of his oeuvre—from early
cameos to innovative painterly bas-reliefs to reductions after stirring public monuments for East Coast cities. Through the lens of the
Museum's unparalleled holdings as well as some related loans, this exhibition will offer a reappraisal of Saint-Gaudens's groundbreaking
role in the history of late 19th-century American sculpture and the Aesthetic Movement.
