Noguchi about Brancusi
The concept itself came from the material, from the nature of material. His (Brancusi’s) work came from the creativity of the hand, how you hold a saw, what kind of a saw you hold… It was not a question merely of the result but of the process.

Brancusi was initiated to golf by John Quinn, an american lawyer, a fan and buyer of Brancusi’s works and Brancusi became a fan of golf. That day, he played with John Quinn, Jeanne Robert Foster and Henri-Pierre Roché.Erik Satie was present to watch and make comments… As Brancusi stroke the ball too hard, Satie said: «Golf was invented by the British and Anglo-Saxons. It is not a game for Romanians.»However, he won the game. And Quinn offered him a set that Brancusi kept all his life. (ref.: Pontus Hulten, “Brancusi”)
