Homage to Brancusi 1957

César's "Homage to Brancusi" (1957) is a compelling bronze sculpture that pays tribute to the Romanian-born sculptor Constantin Brâncuși. This abstract work, characterized by its compressed form and geometric shapes, exemplifies César's interest in the simplified forms of modern sculpture. The piece's fragmented and layered surface alludes to the process of compression and the artist's fascination with the materiality of bronze. "Homage to Brancusi" serves as a testament to César's artistic ingenuity and his profound admiration for Brancuși's pioneering contributions to modern sculpture.
