Bernar Venet
Public Art, Cor-ten Steel Sculpture

One must witness their production to understand how difficult it is to cold-twist steel bars that measure 4.5 inches in section. One then understands the danger and the physical effort. At each instant it is necessary to find improvised solutions so that I can attain the desired goals. Despite the mastery I have acquired over the material, there is always an element of surprise that awaits me each time that I finish a “line.” The most recent “Indeterminate Lines” handle these unexpected results the best. I now create installations with “Indeterminate Lines” of variable configurations. I can propose five, six, or seven lines tangled up in each other. The same lines are then used for different configurations according to the available space.
