From A for studio to S for spiritual, via D for dance, M for muse or R for reflections, this abundantly illustrated work takes the open form of a dictionary to present all the richness of Constantin Brancusi's art. With more than 110 entries written by the artist's greatest specialists, it offers a complete panorama of his career, from the Romania of his youth to pre-war Paris by way of the United States.

It also addresses the question of his reception in a transnational manner, analyzes the view taken of his work by writers and critics and opens the discussion to the question of the posterity of Brancusi's art, highlighting its resonances with contemporary artists.
