''The Kiss'' is a sculpture by Romanian sculptor Constantin Brâncuși. It is an early example of his proto-cubist style of non-literal representation. This plaster was exhibited at the 1913 Armory Show and published in the Chicago Tribune, 25 March 1913.〔(Walt Kuhn scrapbook of press clippings documenting the Armory Show, vol. 2, 1913, Page 96, published Chicago Tribune, 25 March 1913 (the published cropped image is the same photograph reproduced here) )〕 This early plaster sculpture is one of six casts that Brancusi made of the 190708 ''The Kiss''. The original stone carving is in the Muzeul de Arta at Craiova, Romania.〔(''The Kiss'', Nasher Sculpture Center )〕 He created many versions of ''The Kiss'', further simplifying geometric forms and sparse objects in each version, tending each time further toward abstraction.〔(BBC News, review: ''Brancusi at the Tate'' ) Retrieved January 13, 2011〕 His abstract style emphasizes simple geometrical lines that balance forms inherent in his materials with the symbolic allusions of representational art. Here, the shape of the original block of material is maintained. This version of ''The Kiss'' is one of the artists most well known works, along with ''Sleeping Muse'' (1908), ''Prometheus'' (1911), ''Mademoiselle Pogany'' (1913), ''The Newborn'' (1915), ''Bird in Space'' (1919) and ''The Column of the Infinite (Coloana infinitului)'', known as ''The Endless Column'' (1938). Another version of ''The Kiss'' serves as a tombstone in Montparnasse cemetery in Paris, France.〔(BBC, ''The Kiss'', Montparnasse cemetery )〕 Another version still can be seen at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.〔(Philadelphia Museum of Art version )〕 ==References==
