Brancusi at Centre Pompidou

The most controversial museum in Paris (at least when it comes to discussions about its design and structure) offers us an exceptional tribute to the father of modern sculpture. Absolutely fascinating works, of rare delicacy and poetry, which demonstrate all the talent and ambivalence of the Romanian artist. And it's almost an immersive experience that the Centre Pompidou proposes to us, by reconstructing Brancusi's studio, to dive into his creative process. It's nice, and it adds a little extra to this exhibition that is already completely oversized bringing together over 400 works.
