The Norton Museum of Art is West Palm Beach just unveiled six works by French sculptor Auguste Rodin and 10 works by Pop Art stars Andy Warhol, Ray Lichtenstein, Robert Indiana, and Frank Stella.

The five small-scale bronze sculptures by Rodin—along with the monumental Cybele in an adjoining gallery—were created from the late 1800s to early 1900s. The pieces are on long-term loan from the Collection of Iris Cantor and the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Foundation.
