Bernar Venet Français, 1941
-
Biographie
Figurant sur la scène artistique mondiale, l'artiste français Bernar Venet est principalement basé à New York depuis 1966 mais réside actuellement au Muy, en France, où la Fondation Venet organise des expositions chaque année. Ses positions artistiques radicales à Nice et celles qu'il a adoptées à son arrivée aux États-Unis lui ont permis d'exposer aux côtés de grandes figures de l'art minimaliste et conceptuel. Renommé pour ses grandes sculptures en acier corten, le travail artistique de Venet s'étend à divers domaines, incluant la peinture, la performance, la poésie, le son, le design et la photographie. Son œuvre a intégré les collections de plus d'une centaine d'institutions prestigieuses à travers le monde, parmi lesquelles le National Museum of Modern Art (Séoul), le MoMA et le Guggenheim de New York, le LACMA de Los Angeles et le Centre Pompidou de Paris. De plus, il a reçu un grand nombre de commandes publiques en Amérique, en Europe, au Moyen-Orient, en Asie et en Australie.
