Spiritul şi religia formei - Constantin Brîncuşi

  • Subiect: The intention of this paper is the approach of Constantin Brancusi's work from the point of view of the relation myth-religion-creation. Searching essences, going back to the primitive world of the mankind, Brancusi makes us accede the world of the ancient myths most of the time without the help of religion as intermediary. That is why meeting in his work as possible sources the Romanian folklore, the Romanian myth, Plato's philosophy, Swedenborg and Helena Blavatsky's theosophy, African beliefs, Indian philosophy etc. do not oppose each other, they are not incompatible and that is because they are unified in their essentiality. The essential concepts Brancusi used are expressed through similar primary forms the circle, the square, the triangle, the spiral and their spatial correspondences. They become images of the prophane, the sacred and the possibility of their communication. Combining out most of the figurative elements through successive simplifications and clarifications the spirit harmonizes with the form which becomes the expression of a pure idea. Through this simplicity and purity it reaches, the plastic structure embodies universal values. Through sacred forms as signs, the world Brancusi created gives transparency to the real world, makes it easier to understand, opens the gates to the way which leads us back to the origin of the mankind. Here is where Brancusi's and Mircea Eliade's creations meet. The new land they offer us is both a "way" and a "mystery".
