Constantin Brancusi Sculpture

Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi's career spanned fifty years and transformed the art of sculpture from how it had previously been known as he pushed modernist sculpture toward a more abstract look. Brancusi showcased the natural elements of his materials; carving directly into wood and stone and polishing metal. The bases, often made of stacked objects, became part of the works themselves. This exhibit is comprised of eleven of his works from MoMA's collection alongside drawings and photographs and a range of archival materials.
