Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The Endless Column Complex by famed Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi (1876-1957) has been hailed as one of the great works of twentieth-century open-air art. Commissioned by the Women's League of Gorj to honor the soldiers who had defended Targu-Jiu against a German force in 1916, the tripartite ensemble, erected in 1934, is composed of the Endless Column, a 30-meter high column of zinc and brass-clad, cast-iron modules, and two stone monuments, the Gate of the Kiss and the Table of Silence.

Although the column's modules had been replated twice since its construction, the elements had taken a toll on the sculpture, which by the 1990s was in dire need of conservation. This well-illustrated volume celebrates the history of this extraordinary work of art and tells the story of its recent restoration, landscaping and presentation, supported in large part by the World Monuments Fund.
