Paradoxul Brâncuși. Cei mai mulți români vor ca statul să-i cumpere operele, deşi peste 40% recunosc nu i-au văzut niciodată sculpturile în realitate
A recent INSCOP survey reveals that 65.6% of Romanians support the state purchasing Constantin Brâncuși's works for national heritage, despite 41.9% never having seen his sculptures in person. Brâncuși is viewed as a key cultural figure and a symbol of national identity. The survey indicates a strong desire among Romanians to preserve his art, transcending financial considerations. While many recognize his significance, a notable portion of the population is unfamiliar with his work, primarily relying on books and online resources. The perception of Brâncuși varies, with 67.7% identifying him as a Romanian artist, while others see him as universal. The survey highlights cultural patriotism and the importance of artistic heritage in Romania.
