English Bay has spectacular daily sunsets and you do not even have to leave your 100 sq ft apartment to see one. This beach is actually officially called Sunset . Condominiums are taking over the edge of the ocean all around the city with exception of Stanley Park. I actually thought someone employed a large bearing from mining machine or large mixer to use it as a sculpture. I found out, that it was made by French artist Bernar Venet for Vancouver Biennale (2007?). He calls it poetically 217.5 Arc x 13.

This striking piece is called Arc de 19.5, a captivating sculpture by renowned artist Bernar Venet. It’s a fascinating example of modern art that explores mathematics and form, placed here to offer bold, contemporary contrast to the classical architecture of Nice. Seeing it stand so powerfully against the bright sky, surrounded by palm trees and historic buildings, is a reminder that art can appear in the most unexpected places. A truly unique monument that invites reflection as you stroll through the city.

 

What an amazing find. It’s incredible how these modern works of art add a fresh layer to a historic city like Nice, inviting us to see familiar streets with new eyes.

  

Die Skulptur „Arc 89“ von Bernar Venet, die Bezug nimmt auf das Jahr der Wiedervereinigung 1989, verändert beim Umrunden je nach Blickwinkel und Neigung der 14 Bögen seine Wirkung auf den Betrachter, so dass der Eindruck von Trennung und Vereinigung entsteht.

... eher auseinander strebend erscheinen mir die Stahlbögen dieser Skulptur "Arc 89" vor dem Post Tower in Bonn, Helmut-Schmidt-Platz.

 

Der französische Künstler Bernar Venet schuf die aus 14 Stahlbögen aus Cortenstahl bestehende Skulptur für Bonn, die an die Wiedervereinigung erinnern soll und mit den 16 Länder-Säulen vor der Bundeskunsthalle korrespondiert. Sie steht im Mittelrondell eines Kreisverkehrs.

Louvre, Lens

by Bernar Venet.

Der international renommierte Künstler bespielt den Park von Louvre-Lens mit „Désordre“, einer Installation aus 4,5 Meter hohen Stahlbögen, die zerbrechlich wirken und sich neigen, als würden sie jeden Moment zusammenbrechen.

Die Installation wiegt insgesamt etwa 50 Tonnen und wirkt dennoch leicht und verspielt.

Jede Gruppe besteht aus 5 bis 8 sehr präzise geneigten Bögen. Der Konzeptkünstler hält systematisch alle technischen Informationen fest, die zur Beschreibung seiner Skulpturen erforderlich sind.

Bonn Gronau – Helmut-Schmidt-Platz

"Arc 89" von Bernar Venet.

 

Die 14 Stelen sind aus Cortenstahl und exakt um 89 Grad gekrümmt und sollen so an das Jahr der deutschen Wiedervereinigung erinnern. Die Stelen sind 17 Meter hoch, 42 Tonnen schwer. Als Aufstellungsort wurde der Trajektkreisel, im August 2017 umbenannt in Helmut-Schmidt-Platz, ausgewählt. Der Platz wird daher auch umgangssprachlich Pommes-Kreisel genannt.

 

Storms washed a barge into Vancouver's seawall.

Ces arcs de 2,5 tonnes ont été acquis par la ville de Liège en 2006.

Comme déposés sur l’eau… Les 4 arcs en acier corten de l’artiste français Bernar Venet avaient été engloutis par les flots lors des inondations de juillet 2021.

Ces arcs de 2,5 tonnes chacun ont été récupérés et restaurés par des spécialistes en chaudronnerie.

Et un an après leur récupération dans la Meuse, ces sculptures ont été replacées.

As if placed on the water... The 4 corten steel arches by French artist Bernar Venet were swallowed up by the waves during the floods of July 2021.

These arches, each weighing 2.5 tonnes, were recovered and restored by boilermaking specialists.

And a year after their recovery in the Meuse, these sculptures were replaced.

This Sunset Beach sculpture "217.5 Arc x 13" by French artist Bernar Venet is in the permanent collection of Vancouver's Biennale exhibitions.

 

On this day it was double purposed as a hammock hanger.

 

Vancouver Biennale was founded by Barrie Mowatt in 2002. The first bienniale ran from 2005-2007. It featured 24 public works of art from 11 countries.

 

The Vancouver Biennale Legacy Foundation is a Biennale component, committed to leaving a legacy of public art in the city by acquiring major pieces of sculpture from each exhibition and offering them to Vancouver and the surrounding area for long-term display.

 

The legacy programme ensures the city benefits from a legacy of internationally acclaimed works of art for generations to come.

 

ABOUT 217.5 Arc x 13:

The sculpture consists of 13 corten steel arcs and weighs 12,125 lbs. Each arc is the same size.

 

Bernar Venet’s work is part of his Arc series of sculptures illustrating the beauty, balance, and malleability of raw steel.

 

The name of this artwork is a precise description of its mathematical composition. All of the beams in the sculpture are nested and curved to the same angle providing a sense of balance and grace.

 

Venet employs mathematical manipulations of this industrial material to explore the interconnected relationships amongst nature, humanity, and the universe.

 

The repetitive thirteen curves give a resting yet rhythmic sense of movement and fluidity. The raw red-brown rust colour of the unpainted surfaces of the corten steel, an authentic surface upon which Venet insists, facilitates an interaction with the natural elements.

 

“Increasing levels of abstraction and complexity frighten those for whom art is a means to attain a comfortable expression of calm, luxury, and delight.” – Bernar Venet

The runaway barge, seen in my last post, is still setting next to the Seawall, grounded on a sand & rock outcropping. The artwork in the foreground, presented by the Vancouver Biennale, is "217.5 degrees Arc X 13" by Bernar Venet.

The works of the French sculptor Bernar Venet are indeterminate forms, but can be read as extreme enlargements of scratched lines, punctuation marks and accents. His lignes indéterminées are at first sight very abstract, but give the impression of pieces of writing on a contrasting ground.
