Dinu Grigoresco
Dinu-Alexandre Grigoresco (1 November 1914, Bucharest, Romania – 11 October 2001, Fontenay-aux-Roses, France) was a Romanian-born French painter. Biography Dinu Grigoresco was the grandson of Nicolae Grigorescu, one of the leading Romanian painters of the nineteenth century. He studied at the Fine Arts Academy of Bucharest before leaving for Paris in 1939, where he won a scholarship to the National School of Fine Arts. He would spend the rest of his life in France. He initially studied under Léon Sabatier and Nicolas Untersteller, though it was the two years that he spent in André Lhote's studio that most influenced his work. A member of the lyrical abstraction group, he moved in the artistic and literary circles of postwar Paris, befriending, among others, Francis Gruber, Jean Dewasne, and Constantin Brâncuși.Edwin Constantin Fianu, “Dinu Grigoresco à Montréal,” Magazin’Art, 2.1 (1989) : 46.

Cubism
Cubism is an early-20th-century avant-garde art movement that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music, literature and architecture. In Cubist artwork, objects are analyzed, broken up and reassembled in an abstracted form—instead of depicting objects from a single viewpoint, the artist depicts the subject from a multitude of viewpoints to represent the subject in a greater context. Cubism has been considered the most influential art movement of the 20th century. The term is broadly used in association with a wide variety of art produced in Paris (Montmartre and Montparnasse) or near Paris (Puteaux) during the 1910s and throughout the 1920s. The movement was pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, and joined by Jean Metzinger, Albert Gleizes, Robert Delaunay, Henri Le Fauconnier, Juan Gris, and Fernand Léger. One primary influence that led to Cubism was the representation of three-dimensional form in the late works of Paul C ...

Constantin Brâncuși
Constantin Brâncuși (; February 19, 1876 – March 16, 1957) was a Romanian sculptor, painter and photographer who made his career in France. Considered one of the most influential sculptors of the 20th-century and a pioneer of modernism, Brâncuși is called the patriarch of modern sculpture. As a child he displayed an aptitude for carving wooden farm tools. Formal studies took him first to Bucharest, then to Munich, then to the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris from 1905 to 1907. His art emphasizes clean geometrical lines that balance forms inherent in his materials with the symbolic allusions of representational art. Brâncuși sought inspiration in non-European cultures as a source of primitive exoticism, as did Paul Gauguin, Pablo Picasso, André Derain and others. However, other influences emerge from Romanian folk art traceable through Byzantine and Dionysian traditions. Early years Brâncuși grew up in the village of Hobița, Gorj, near Târgu Jiu, close to ...
