Description :
Constantin Brancusi arrived in Paris in 1904 after attending the Bucharest School of Fine Arts. He created the majority of his works in his Paris studios...
Shortly before he died, he bequeathed his studio and all its contents to the French government on condition that the Musée National d'Art Moderne reconstitute the studio as it had been in its original location near Montparnasse.
Architect Renzo Piano reproduced Brancusi’s studio on one side of the Place Georges Pompidou, next to the eponymous Centre.
The layout of the studio has been reconstituted down to the last detail with Brancusi’s sculptures, photographs, manuals, discs and tools to satisfy the artist’s wish to have his work displayed in its entirety.
