Book excerpt: The first true monograph on the work of celebrated French conceptual artist and sculptor Bernar Venet Bernar Venet is one of France's most celebrated living artists. Having emerged from the late 1960s avant-garde scene in New York, Venet developed a personal aesthetic based on an innovative use of mathematics and science, where control, chance, and chaos converge to form a fine equilibrium while investigating their relationship with the environment. Conversant in many media, Venet is mostly known for his monumental outdoor sculptures in major cities worldwide and, in fall 19, his Arc Majeur is due for completion at a site in Belgium - at almost 200 feet in height (60 metres), Venet's sculpture will be taller than New York's Statue of Liberty.

Book Public Art and Urban Memorials in Berlin

Download or read book Public Art and Urban Memorials in Berlin written by Biljana Arandelovic and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides insight into the significant area of public art and memorials in Berlin. Through diverse selected examples, grouped according to their basic character and significance, the most important art projects produced in the period since World War II are presented and discussed. Both as a critical theoretical work and rich photo book, this volume is a unique selection of Berlin’s diverse visual elements, contemporary and from the recent past. Some artworks are very famous and are already symbols of Berlin while others are less well known. Public Art and Urban Memorials in Berlin analyzes the connections created by public art on one hand, and urban space and architectural forms on the other. This volume considers the Berlin works of iconic artists such as Christo and Jeanne-Claude, Daniel Libeskind, Dani Karavan, Bernar Venet, Keith Haring, Christian Boltanski, Richard Serra, Peter Eisenman, Henry Moore, Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Brüggen, Wolf Vostell, Gerhard Richter, Eduardo Chillida, Jonathan Borofsky, Olaf Metzel, Sol LeWitt, Frank Gehry, Max Lingner, Bernhard Heiliger, Frank Thiel, Juan Garaizabal and more. The reader is led through seven chapters: Creative City Berlin, Introduction to Public Art, Public Art in Berlin, the Celebration of Berlin’s 750th Anniversary in 1987, Temporary public art, Socialist Realism in Art, and Urban Memorials. The chapter Public Art in Berlin discusses selected projects, Bundestag Public Art Collection, Public Art at Potsdamer Platz and The City and the river – a renewed relationship. The chapter on urban memorials discusses: Remembering the Divided City and Holocaust Memorials in Berlin. The book delivers nine interviews with artists whose Berlin work is revealed through this volume (Bernar Venet, Hubertus von der Goltz, Dani Karavan, Juan Garaizabal, Susanne Lorenz, Kalliopi Lemos, Frank Thiel, Karla Sachse and Nikolaus Koliusis).

Book Bernar Venet  retrospective 2019 1959

Download or read book Bernar Venet retrospective 2019 1959 written by and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mac Lyon Exposition " Bernar Venet, rétrospective 1961-2018 " 21 septembre 2018-06 janvier 2019 Commissaire : Thierry Raspail A l'initiative de Thierry Raspail, le mac Lyon présente un ensemble inédit et exceptionnel de plus de 170 oeuvres de Bernar Venet, des premières performances, dessins, diagrammes, peintures, jusqu'aux photographies, oeuvres sonores, films et sculptures, retraçant ainsi 59 années de création (1959-2018). Rétrospective la plus complète jamais réalisée, elle a pour objet d'examiner toutes les étapes qui conduisent, à l'orée des années 1960, un jeune artiste de 20 ans à " souhaiter retirer toute charge d'expression contenue dans l'oeuvre pour la réduire à un fait matériel ", puis à s'approprier l'astrophysique, la physique nucléaire et la logique mathématique, à interrompre cinq ans son activité pour opérer enfin un retour inattendu avec des toiles sur châssis. Suivront les oeuvres sonores, la poésie, puis les Lignes indéterminées, les Accidents, les dispersions, les Combinaisons aléatoires, jusqu'aux lignes indéfinies et courbes des sculptures monumentales en acier Corten. L'oeuvre protéiforme de Bernar Venet reste encore mal connue car elle est souvent exposée partiellement, en " périodes " ou selon une logique de support (les Goudrons, les sculptures en acier). Elle exige aujourd'hui d'être appréhendée dans son intégralité afin d'en cerner l'ampleur, la complexité, la poésie et l'évidence. Il convient d'en retracer le parcours afin de restituer au contexte qui l'a vu naître (l'apparition du happening en 1959, du Nouveau Réalisme, de Fluxus et de l'Ecole de Nice dans les années 1960, " l'invention " de l'art minimal et conceptuel aux Etats- Unis où Bernar Venet s'installe en 1966), la pertinence et le haut degré de création. C'est l'objet de cette rétrospective. Dès son plus jeune âge, Bernar Venet montre des affinités avec l'art. Dans les années 1960, il se rend à New York où, pendant les cinquante années suivantes, il explore peinture, poésie, film, et performance. ? Il entreprend alors une radicalisation sans précédent de l'expérience artistique et de la production esthétique. Découragé par les conventions de l'art français et fasciné par Marcel Duchamp et le formalisme américain, il est reconnu dès les années 1970 comme l'une des figures majeures de l'art conceptuel.

In doing so, this collection offers a unique multi-disciplinary contribution that disentangles some of the key aspects and trends in art market practices from the past to nowadays, namely art collectors, the artist as an entrepreneur and career paths, and the formation and development of new markets. In understanding the global art market as an ecosystem, the book also examines how research and perceptions have evolved over time. Within the frameworks of contemporary social, economic and political contexts, issues such as business practices, the roles of market participants and the importance of networks are analysed by scholars of different disciplines. With insights from across the humanities and social sciences, the book explores how different methods can coexist to create an interdisciplinary international community of knowledge and research on art markets. Moreover, by providing historical as well as contemporary examples, this book explores the continuum and diversity of the art market. Overall, this book provides a valuable tool for understanding art markets within their wider context. The volume is of interest to scholars researching into the cultural and creative industries from a wider perspective.
