Often hailed as one of the founding fathers of modern sculpture, Romanian-born Constantin Brancusi was fully embraced by his adopted country France – and the feeling was mutual. When the sculptor died in 1957, he left the French government his Paris studio, where he had completed the majority of his works from 1916 until his death.

As the Centre Pompidou undergoes renovation works, the museum has taken the opportunity to give Brancusi’s studio a li...
