Press Release

de Sarthe is pleased to announce that celebrated French artist Bernar Venet’s 12 Acute Unequal Angles will be included in the Sculpture Exhibition co-presented by Asia Society Hong Kong Center (ASHK) and Hong Kong Art Gallery Association (HKAGA). The exhibition opens on 26 March and runs through 26 April 2020 at Asia Society Hong Kong Center, 9 Justice Drive, Admiralty, Hong Kong.

Celebrated French artist Bernar Venet explores, through his interdisciplinary practice, the dynamics between line and material, form and force, the rational and the organic. Exactly as titled, 12 Acute Unequal Angles is comprised of twelve acute unequal angles, each constructed using Cor-ten steel. Though the artwork’s subject is grounded in a mathematic rational, the outdoor sculpture itself is covered in a smooth layer of rust, relying on natural elements for its industrial aesthetic.
