About the Item

Vintage hardcover monograph on Constantin Brancusi’s photographic practice, published in 1996. 80 pages. Text in English, printed in Italy. This volume examines how Brancusi used photography as both documentation and artistic expression, capturing his sculptures with intentional lighting, angles, and staging. Written by curator and Brancusi scholar Elizabeth A. Brown, the book draws from her doctoral research and highlights the sculptor’s studio as a site of image-making. “Through Brown’s lens, we see Brancusi not only as a sculptor but as a visual strategist—shaping perception through shadow, focus, and form.”
