The film immerses us in the creation of Bernar Venet’s sculptures, following the journey of his works from their theoretical foundation to their realization. Through exclusive footage, it takes us into a sensory confrontation between the sounds of steel, the handling process, an industrial setting, and rigorous theories. Physical and artistic experiments intertwine with insightful interviews on aesthetics and art history. Featuring Bernar Venet, Mária Szalai, Marie Lavandier, Pierre Bourrier, Dylan Lessel, Albert Pesti, and Jérôme Sans.
