Considered <strong>the founding father of modern sculpture<\/strong>, the exhibition traces the journey of this artist who walked from Romania to Paris. Carving directly into the material, simplifying forms and stylising objects, Brancusi fascinated many of his contemporaries. Breaking with convention and seeking to achieve the purest form, the artist pursued a quest: <em>\u2018The exhibition traces his quest for the very essence of things. And truly, he captures something very fundamental in this art,\u2019<\/em> says Brigit Boelens.<\/p>\n\n<p>Sculpture, his master craft, is not the only discipline practised by the artist. <strong>Photography<\/strong>, <strong>dance<\/strong> and <strong>music<\/strong> have also been part of his life. Using the art of capturing the present as a way of documenting his works, dance and music are a source of inspiration. Many dancers and choreographers have visited his Paris studio.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/05-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Sculpture by the artist Brancusi depicting a face carved in white stone.\" class=\"wp-image-227054\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/05-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/05-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/05-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/05-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u00a9 Collection Centre Pompidou, Paris.&#13;\nNational Museum of Modern Art&#13;\n\u2013 Centre for Industrial Creation. \u00a9 Brancusi Estate \u2013 All rights reserved (Adagp) c\/o Pictoright&#13;\nAmsterdam 2025.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A workshop as a source of inspiration<\/h2>\n\n<p><em>\u201cHis studio was his whole life, it was his temple, a work of art among all these works of art,\u201d<\/em> says Birgit Boelens.

The H&#8217;ART Museum, wishing to recapture the essence of the place, has attempted to recreate the atmosphere that emanated from it through the prism of light. <em>\u2018A lot of light came through the glass roof&#8230; And in this exhibition we also have a lot of light on the sculptures,\u2019<\/em> explains Birgit Boelens.<\/p>\n\n<p>Brancusi placed great importance on light sources, considering them to be <em><strong>\u2018pure sources of joy\u2019<\/strong><\/em>.

Inspired by this approach, the museum has attempted to follow this guideline.<em> \u2018We have tried to respect this idea and have attempted to exhibit the cultures in a way that we hope he would have wanted,\u2019<\/em> comments Birgit Boelens.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/09-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Wooden sculpture by Brancusi, arranged on a large white base.\" class=\"wp-image-227056\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/09-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/09-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/09-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/09-Brancusi_HART-Museum_Foto-Aad-Hoogendoorn-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u00a9 Collection Centre Pompidou, Paris.&#13;\nNational Museum of Modern Art&#13;\n\u2013 Centre for Industrial Creation. \u00a9 Brancusi Estate \u2013 All rights reserved (Adagp) c\/o Pictoright&#13;\nAmsterdam 2025.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An atypical artist in an atypical place<\/h2>\n\n<p>It is no coincidence that Brancusi&#8217;s works have found their way to the H&#8217;ART Museum. Originally belonging to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.centrepompidou.fr\/fr\/programme\/agenda\/evenement\/6x6cGCI\"><strong>Pompidou Centre<\/strong> <\/a>in Paris, the works travelled to Amsterdam due to the renovation of the centre. This exceptional loan has delighted the museum&#8217;s director: <em>\u2018We are very proud that this major five-year exhibition is being held at our museum in Amsterdam,\u2019<\/em> says Annabelle Birnie.<\/p>\n\n<p>Brancusi, part of an innovative tradition, is integral to the museum. Originally, the museum had a partnership with the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg. However, following the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the museum severed ties and was forced to reinvent itself. Far from traditional social codes, it has instead become a cultural centre. Rather than a permanent collection, anchored to a particular period or theme, it hosts <strong>performances<\/strong>, <strong>temporary exhibitions<\/strong> and <strong>concerts<\/strong> of all kinds. Located on Amstel Street in the former Amstelhof building, it shares the premises with two other museums: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdammuseum.nl\/\">the Amsterdam Museum<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/museumvandegeest.nl\/plan-je-bezoek\/praktische-informatie-amsterdam\/\">the Spirit Museum.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Considered a cultural oasis, the museum is seeking new partners. Initially working with the <strong>Pompidou Centre<\/strong>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britishmuseum.org\/\"><strong>British Museum<\/strong><\/a> in London and the<a href=\"https:\/\/americanart.si.edu\/\"><strong> Smithsonian American Art Museum<\/strong><\/a> in Washington, D.C. have been added to the list. In the future, the museum will host exhibitions on Matisse (2026-2027), Surrealism (2027) and Fernand L\u00e9ger (2028).<\/p>\n\n<p>The Brancusi exhibition, the birth of modern sculpture, can be discovered on our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.museumtv.art\/en\/\"><strong>Museum TV<\/strong><\/a> platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Located on the banks of Amsterdam&#8217;s canals, the H&#8217;ART Museum is opening its doors for the Brancusi exhibition, The Birth of Modern Culture.
