ŞTEFAN-IOAN GEORGESCU-GORJEAN – “THE CONSTRUCTOR” OF THE ENDLESS COLUMN
Abstract
When we talk about the “Endeless Column” or about the “Infinite Sacrifice Column” from Tg. Jiu, we think of Constantin Brâncuşi. When we talk about the “Endeless Column” or about the “Infinite Sacrifice Column”, we think that it is a work of art. In 2001, when we celebrated 125 years from C. Brâncuşi’s birth, UNESCO drew up a report in which it was stated: “The Endless Column is not only a masterpiece of the modern art, but it is also an extraordinary engineering work.” The one who pointed out the engineering characteristic of this work of art was Ştefan-Ioan Georgescu-Gorjan.
