The Paris-based Musée Rodin will open its first international branch in China this September, after changing its plans to open in Shenzhen, opting instead for a satellite site in Shanghai.
Known as Centre d’Art Rodin, the project was initially announced in 2019 and was expected to open in two to three years. But no updates have been announced since then until the recent confirmation of its September opening.
The museum's China outpost was initially planned to open in Shenzhen. However, according to Centre d’Art Rodin’s artistic director Kong Xianhe, Shanghai was eventually chosen because of its vibrant art scene, economic growth, and promising future.
