Size of the subject : 25 x 23, 5 cm. - Sheet : 38 x 34 cm. Paper slightly yellowed, a slight freckle on the right side. Bernar Venet was one of the pioneers of conceptual art in the 1960's. Living in New York at the time, he began by developing an art imbued with his scientific and mathematical interests before creating his steel sculptures that would make him known to the general public. His arches and other indeterminate lines in corten steel gradually took possession of urban spaces and public and private collections around the world. The line is the central subject of his work, and he works with it in all its forms and dimensions, both in sculpture and in engraving. Indeed, Bernar Venet is a multidisciplinary artist who also illustrates himself in the graphic arts, ranging from painting to drawing and printmaking. The etching we present here is one of the techniques used in the artist's engraved works. Although it seems to use a simple form, Venet's production shows a perfectly mastered complexity that contributes to the timeless poetry that emanates from this work.
