New York : Brancusi

Preview

Opening Thursday April 26, at Bruce Silverstein Gallery in Chelsea was an exhibit of photographs by Constantin Brancusi. Despite being very familiar with Brancusi’s work as a sculptor and also knowing the photos of him and his work by Edward Steichen, I was not that aware of Brancusi’s own photographs. The photographs shown at Silverstein were collected by Bruce Silverstein himself over an extended period of time and are all original vintage prints by Brancusi. As Bruce states in the press release for the exhibition, “this exhibition reveals Brancusi’s visionary dedication to the photographic medium as means of personal expression-an art form that the artist explored parallel to his sculpture.” I couldn’t have said it better myself. It is a wonderful show and is up until June 23.
