Francis Bacon's Studio & Constantin Brancusi's Studio
Francis Bacon's studio is a mess of creativity. It is organised chaos. It is fantastic. This is a studio space that resonates with me. There is paint splattered all over the walls and doors. It is filled with creative energy. If I ever had a big studio space to myself then it would probably look like this.

Constantin Brancusi's Studio is the total opposite of Bacon's studio space. It is organised and neat, echoing his own work. Brancusi needed space for his sculptural pieces and his studio seems to showcase his works. He also needed a large variety of tools and these took up space.

These two studio spaces showcase just how different artists are. We all thrive in different work environments. Some people need to be organised and have space to create while others work better surrounded by creativity and chaos.
Why is there a large public for viewing artists studios? What do you think viewers can learn about an artist through their studio?
People are interested in seeing where art works are created and what goes on behind the scenes. Seeing the artist's studio is a glimpse into the artist's mind and their creative process. It is such a creative and personal space and it can be really inspiring to emerging artist's.
