Brancusi : sublimation of form

The flagship event of EUROPALIA ROMANIA is a prestigious exhibition devoted to Constantin Brancusi (1876-1957), one of the most influential sculptors of the 20th century. This is the first time a solo exhibition highlighting the work of this particularly versatile artist has taken place in Brussels - the last retrospective was organised in Paris almost 25 years ago. Brancusi is a key figure in the history of art and is considered to be a pioneer of modernism. Several pieces are showcased for the first time alongside works by Rodin under whom Brancusi briefly studied. This publication presents masterpieces by Brancusi from museums and private collections around the world, including Sleeping Muse, The Kiss and Leda.
