Synopsis:

One of France's most uniquely compelling artists, Bernar Venet has devoted the last two decades to an investigation of meaning and form in sculpture. Venet was trained as a painter but quickly became involved with conceptual art, experimenting with mathematical and aesthetic principles in a variety of media, particularly sculpture. In this illustrated book, critic Carter Ratcliff provides an illuminating look at the complex relationship between form, language, and meaning in Venet's recent work.

Book Description: Cercle d'Art Publications, Paris, 1994. Hardbound. First. In this beautifully illustrated book, renowned critic Carter Ratcliff provides an illuminating look at the complex relationship between form, language, and meaning in Venet's recent work. Ratcliff's incisive and provocative study traces the development of Venet's work from his early tar paintings and coal piles to his enormous steel arcs and angles that are now installed across the U.S. and Europ, to his fascinating 'Random Combinations.' In a separate essay, Ratcliff analyzes the significance of Venet's 'Random Combinations of Indeterminate Lines' (1991) within the context of the artist's oeuvre and suggests the impact of this ground- breaking work on how contemporary sculpture is both seen and made. Dark blue cloth boards with color pictorial DJ, 200pp, profuse color and BW illustrations VG, bottom back corner of DJ is bumped. Bookseller Inventory # 128627

Book Description: Cross River Pr, New York, New York, U.S.A., 1994. Cloth. Book Condition: New / Mint. Dust Jacket Condition: New / Mint. Quatro. This is a sparkling BRAND NEW BOOK which is in MINT / PRISTINE condition, just as is its DJ, which is now protected with a Mylar covering. Ratcliff does a great job here in presenting the sculpture of this remarkable artist. Venet can have massive pieces of steel whipped around In every direction, and when it is finished, it is still growing. Awesome stuff here, and highly recommended. We venture there is no better copy to be found. Bookseller Inventory # 101472
