Atelier Brancusi at Centre Georges Pompidou
We recently had the chance to visit (and marvel) Atelier Brancusi at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, France.
It wasn't until 1920 that Brancusi faced the humilitation of seeing his Princess X (1916) get withdrawn due to alledgedly pornographic material from the Salon des Independants. It was this momentuous event that inspired the sculptor the desire to create his studio as a place of exhibition. The studio eventually became a haven and space for his original works' "doubles."
