Rare footage of Constantin Brâncuși at work surfaces

A 50-minute video compilation of Constantin Brâncuși (1876–1957), filmed between 1923 and 1939, shows the Romanian sculptor at work, including assembling his iconic "Endless Column." The footage, described by critic Blake Gopnik in The New York Times as capturing Brâncuși's obsession with how his sculpture comes to life outdoors, was made possible after Man Ray taught Brâncuși the basics of filmmaking in the early 1920s. This collection represents all surviving footage shot by the artist.
