📗 Libro en inglés BRANCUSI, ROSSO, MAN RAY: FRAMING SCULPTURE

During Spring 2014 Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen presented the work of three of the most influential artists of the twentieth century: Constantin Brancusi (1876-1957), Medardo Rosso (1858-1928) and Man Ray (1890-1976). Masterpieces were flown in from top collections all over the world, including the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. They included iconic sculptures never shown in the Netherlands, such as Brancusi’s ‘Princesse X’ (1915-16) and ‘Colonne sans fin’ (1918). Brancusi, Rosso and Man Ray all used photography in an innovative way in their work. A group of forty sculptures and more than sixty photographs that the artists took of their sculptures afford a unique insight into their artistic practice.
