Constantin Brâncuşi (Romanian pronunciation: [konstanˈtin brɨnˈkuʃʲ]; February 19, 1876 – March 16, 1957) was a Romanian-born sculptor who made his career in France. As a child he displayed an aptitude for carving wooden farm tools. Formal studies took him first to Bucharest, then to Munich, then to the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. His abstract style emphasizes clean geometrical lines that balance forms inherent in his materials with the symbolic allusions of representational art. Famous Brâncuşi works include the Sleeping Muse (1908), The Kiss (1908), Prometheus (1911), Mademoiselle Pogany (1913), The Newborn (1915), Bird in Space (1919) and The Column of the Infinite (Coloana infinitului), popularly known as The Endless Column (1938). Brâncuşi is considered a pioneer of modernism布朗库西（1876——1957）, 20世纪现代雕塑的先驱和本世纪最伟大的雕塑家之一。生于罗马尼亚。曾入巴黎美术学院学习，也当过罗丹的助手，受毕加索立体主义绘画的启发开始开拓雕塑领域。但与毕加索不同，他不是破坏重组而是保持第一视觉经验的完整和直觉的纯真，追求造型的极度单纯化以达到接近事物的本质。同时对材料比如木、石和铜本身的质地也有更细致的感受。以简括和纯化的语言写意传情，表达内在的感觉和情韵。代表作有《吻》、《空中之鸟》等。《空中之鸟》是件青铜雕塑，看起来象飞向空中的鸟的翅膀，上端尖、下端有一柔和曲度，比例和谐，线条优美。虽然把飞鸟简化到几乎难辨的程度，但却能引发人们对空中飞鸟的联想，这件作品同时也反映了布朗库西对金属材料表现力的把握。布朗库西开辟了现代雕塑的道路，后继者或多或少都受到他的影响
