What a week – for many reasons! Thank you to all of those who contributed to the final event of the @HMILeeds and @HenryMooreFDN research season 'Brancusi and Britain' last Thursday, incl. @JackGQuin @ingafraser @NatalieRudd15 @CassiaPenn & many others
Also pleased to see the English translation of the Brancusi A–Z catalogue published by @CentrePompidou with Scheidegger & Spiess (and @Ridinghouse) has landed and is a beautiful thing. Lovely to have worked on this
⏰ Final reminder that this happening on Friday (just before the exhibition finishes on Sunday). ECR/PhD status *very* broadly defined so do get in touch if you’d like to come and talk modern sculpture with @eatartbooks and @JonathanPVernon
Join me, @eatartbooks and @JonathanPVernon for a tour of @HepworthGallery's stunning Kim Lim show next Friday!

Bonus: a few of my favourite photos from the opening of Ariane's exhibition back in March. Astonishing to see many of these objects come out from behind the glass of the Atelier, in addition to remarkable Romanian loans. Brancusi fans have until 1 July to see it for themselves
On Wednesday, in the third event of our @HMILeeds research season, I'll chair an online discussion between Ariane Coulondre, curator of the @CentrePompidou Brancusi exhibition, and Matthew Gale, co-curator of the 2004 @Tate retrospective. Free tickets here https://t.co/pUCNJCpdrO
Tomorrow: the second event in our research season with @HMILeeds, a conference on the role of difference and multiplicity in Brancusi's work @CourtauldRes. Looking forward to talks from our artists & early career researchers. Tickets now sold out but event will be recorded!
'Modern Sculpture, Essence and Difference: Reflections on the Work of Constantin Brâncuşi' @CourtauldRes on Fri 26 April, culminates with a discussion exploring the influence of Brâncuşi on artists Lucy Skaer & Hannah Hughes' work.

In September @HenryMooreFDN hosted 'Shaping the future that was', a conference for its exhibition 'Henry Moore: The Sixties'.

This month I've been back @metmuseum to work on my book at the amazing Leonard A. Lauder Research Center for Modern Art.

Today and tomorrow, @mPICASSOm presents a modern sculpture symposium alongside its exhibition 'Picasso and Sculpture: Matter and Body' (runs to 9 Sept).
I'm speaking tomorrow, at 6pm CEST, on the 'apartness' of modern sculpture. Sign up here: https://t.co/QIt48a7g6E
A day after his birthday, Brancusi's Kiss is still hidden from public view in what looks like a birdbox, both because of legitimate conservation concerns and a cynical legal claim intended to profit from the sale of French national heritage. Cimetière du Montparnasse this morning
On 16 December, I'm speaking @YaleBritishArt's online symposium 'Works on the Floor', which explores the functions of the floor as a signifier.
I'll be talking about Scott Burton's Brancusi, and an exhibition taken hostage by a culture war.
