More quotes by Constantin Brancusi
Nothing grows well in the shade of a big tree.
Constantin Brancusi
Things are not difficult to make what is difficult is putting ourselves in the state of mind to make them
Constantin Brancusi
The work of art expresses precisely those things which do not die. It must do so, however, in a form that bears witness to the artist's own era.
Constantin Brancusi
To see far is one thing, going there is another.
Constantin Brancusi
Simplicity is complexity resolved
Constantin Brancusi
I refused [to study under Rodin] because nothing grows under large trees.
Constantin Brancusi
Why talk about sculpture when I can photograph it?
Constantin Brancusi
When you see a fish you don't think of its scales, do you? You think of its speed, its floating, flashing body seen through the water... If I made fins and eyes and scales, I would arrest its movement, give a pattern or shape of reality. I want just the flash of its spirit.
Constantin Brancusi
Don't look for obscure formulas or mystery in my work. It is pure joy that I offer you. Look at my sculptures until you see them. Those closest to God have seen them.
Constantin Brancusi
The function of art is to make that understood which in the form of argument would be incomprehensible.
Constantin Brancusi
Create like a god, command like a king, work like a slave.
Constantin Brancusi
Simplicity is not an objective in art, but one achieves simplicity despite one's self by entering into the real sense of things.
Constantin Brancusi
