  14. On 19th February every year it is celebrated the birthday of a great Romanian sculptor named Constantin Brancusi. • 133 years have passed since his birth and on this occasion we had the opportunity to participate at a cultural symposium about “The life and the opera of Brancusi “unfolded in our city ,in Tg- Jiu. In frame of this symposium participated different cultural people of our country together with the students from more schools who had presented a series of composition works and even a play about Brancusi, surprised very well “the essence of the Brancusi opera “.This works were analyzed by the jury, which brought more information’s related in the sculptors works,and details of his life .We were very excited to find out more new things that we didn’t know such as the period evolution of kiss,a very important theme because we find her at several creations of the artist .Although the symposium lasted few hours we couldn’t noticed passage of time because all of us try to imagine the forms of Brancusi opera’s and so we understood better the message sent by him. We learned a lot of things from this experience and we believe that we are able in the future to present this creation of the most important Romanian sculptor to you , italian colleagues and not only!
