In the newly expanded North Carolina Museum of Art, twenty-six of the 29 so-called Rodin “sculptures,” attributed to Auguste Rodin (d 1917), were posthumous forged in bronze from posthumous plaster reproductions (not from the objects given by him) with counterfeit “A Rodin” signatures inscribed between 1918 and 1988.<br>
<br>
The dead don't sculpt.<br>
<br>
As an Association of Art Museum Directors member, the North Carolina Museum of Art endorses their Professional Practices in Art Museums. On page 31 of this publication, it states the: “misleading marketing of reproductions, has created such widespread confusion as to require clarification in order to maintain professional standards.

The so-called "Rodin gallery (a little overfull—what a problem to have, too many Rodins)  consists of some two dozen or more non-disclosed forgeries (after 1918).<br>
<br>
Auguste Rodin died in 1917.<br>
<br>
The dead don’t sculpt.<br>
