What to look for

Modernism: this is an umbrella rather than a style; look for the narrower movement first (Cubism, Expressionism, Surrealism) and use Modernism when none fits.

Constantin Brâncuși (February 19, 1876 – March 16, 1957) was a Romanian sculptor, painter, and photographer. Considered one of the most influential sculptors of the 20th century and a pioneer of modernism, Brâncuși is called the patriarch of modern sculpture. Wikipedia
