My long-standing interest in art and cultural heritage recently led me to attend a special event celebrating the legacy of Constantin Brâncuși (1876-1957) titled "Brâncuși – From Romania to Paris and the World," held at the Seoul History Museum. I was invited by Romanian Ambassador to Korea Cezar Manole Armeanu to attend the opening ceremony of the exhibition on July 3. The program featured a photo exhibition showcasing some of Brâncuși’s most representative masterpieces, offering opportunity to explore the vision of the artist widely regarded as the founding father of modern sculpture. Standing there, surrounded by photographs of his masterpieces, I found myself thinking less about art history and more about how desperately we need his philosophy right now. To commemorate the occasion, the exhibition featured a screening of a film by Cornel Mihalache, a prominent Romanian director and senior TV journalist who was recently appointed manager of the Brâncuși Center in Târgu Jiu. A long-time scholar of Brâncuși, Mihalache has spent decades documenting the sculptor’s life
