In twentieth-century sculpture, the name of Romanian-born Constantin Brancusi (1876-1957) towers above all others. This catalogue was published to accompany a major retrospective exhibition of Brancusi's sculpture, drawings, and photo-graphs organized by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris. Profusely illustrated throughout with photographs by the artist and images culled from a wide range of archival sources, it is the most definitive work yet published on this inþuential artist. The authors provide a detailed reassessment of Brancusi's work, incorporating and extending the profound revisions in scholarship that have been taking place since the last major retrospective in 1969-70. Chronology. Bibliography. Index.
