Constantin Brâncuși (Romanian: [konstanˈtin brɨŋˈkuʃʲ] (About this soundlisten); February 19, 1876 – March 16, 1957) was a Romanian sculptor, painter and photographer who made his career in France. Considered a pioneer of modernism, one of the most influential sculptors of the 20th-century, Brâncuși is called the patriarch of modern sculpture. As a child he displayed an aptitude for carving wooden farm tools. Formal studies took him first to Bucharest, then to Munich, then to the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris from 1905 to 1907. His art emphasizes clean geometrical lines that balance forms inherent in his materials with the symbolic allusions of representational art. Brâncuși sought inspiration in non-European cultures as a source of primitive exoticism, as did Paul Gauguin, Pablo Picasso, André Derain and others. However, other influences emerge from Romanian folk art traceable through Byzantine and Dionysian traditions.[1]

Constantin Brancusi, a native of Targu Jiu, was commissioned by the National League of Gorj Women to honor soldiers who had defended Târgu Jiu in 1916 from the forces of the Central Powers. The memorial monument complex was finished in 1938. Constantin Brâncuși (1876–1957) was at the time living in Paris, but welcomed the opportunity to create a large commemorative sculpture in his homeland. He accepted the commission in 1935, and refused to receive payment for it. Today, these large sculptures of the memorial complex, The Table of Silence, The Gate of the Kiss, The Alley of Chairs along with The Endless Column are main touristic attractions in Targu Jiu, Romania.
The sculpture is 6.45 m wide, 5.13 m high and 1.69 m thick and is built as a triumphal arch symbolizing the the triumph of life over death.

The Constantin Brancusi Memorial House is located in Hobita, Pestisani commune, Gorj County, Romania. The house is not the original one, which was demolished by the person who was supposed to take care and curate the house. The current house is located in the place where the great sculptor was born and lived before leaving the village and traveling to Paris on foot.
Hailed as one of the great works of twentieth-century sculpture, Endless Column by Constantin Brancusi (1876-1957) was commissioned by the Women's League of Gorj to honor the soldiers who defended Târgu-Jiu against a German force during World War I. The sculpture is a 98-foot-high (30 meter) column of zinc, brass-clad, cast-iron modules threaded onto a steel spine, and is part of a three-sculpture ensemble along with two travertine monuments called Gate of the Kiss and Table of Silence. Despite the ensemble's artistic importance, it was considered degenerate art during the Communist era.

Even though he admired the eminent Rodin he left the Rodin studio after only two months, saying, "Nothing can grow under big trees

Constantin Brancusi was a Romanian sculptor, painter and photographer.
The African influence is obvious in this cubist masterpiece. Or it may simply be a case of "convergence".
My vision of Brancusi's work is profoundly moving and ephemeral, existing in a realm beyond the ordinary. This is the essence I strive to capture in my photography.
