Becoming into being

Summary/Abstract: Brâncuşi’s sculpture “Endless Column” in Târgu Jiu was interpreted by Constantin Noica as an artistic expression of the ontological vision characteristic of the Romanian sense of being. It brings together two great philosophical categories, traditionally seen as mutually exclusive: static being and dynamic becoming. Noica proves that Brâncuşi’s sculpture is unique in the way it illustrates “becoming into being” (Romanian = Devenirea întru fiinţa), the fundamental term in Noica’s ontology.
