Description

Bernar Venet's Poetic? Poétique? Anthologie 1967-2017 is a unique collection of poetry that showcases the artist's innovative approach to language and form. Spanning over five decades, this anthology features 248 poems written in French, English, or with mathematical signs, which display information in a poetic fashion. The poems are characterized by their use of lists, texts in prose, and diagrams, bringing a visual and musical dimension to the knowledge they portray. This collection significantly contributed to the development of conceptual writing in the 1960s and continues to be relevant today, reflecting the changing nature of written content in the digital era. A rare opportunity to explore the work of French artist Bernar Venet, this anthology is a fascinating insight into his literary creations and their poetic power.
