Description:Excerpt from The Little Review: A Quarterly Journal of Art and Letters; Autumn, 1921 At best one could but clear away a few grosser misconceptions. Gaudier had discriminated against beefy statues, he had given us a very definite appreciation of stone as stone; he had taught us to feel that the beauty of sculpture is inseparable from its material and that it inheres in the material. Brancusi was giv ing up the facile success of representative sculpture about the time Gaudier was giving up his baby - bottle; in many ways his difference from Gaudier is a difference merely of degree, he has had time to make statues where Gaudier had time only to make sketches; Gaudier had purged himself of every kind of rhetoric he had noticed; Brancusi has detected more kinds of rhetoric and continued the process of purgation. When verbally intelligible he is quite definite in the statement that whatever else art is it is not crise des nerfs; that beauty is not grimaces and fortuitous gestures; that starting with an ideal of form one arrives at a mathematical exactitude of proportion. But not by mathematics. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
