Lithograph and collage on paper - Signed, dated and numbered - Titled lower center, with artist's dry stamp lower left // Bernar Venet’s Position of Three Major Arcs of 265.5° Each is a 1981 mixed media lithograph that combines elements of mathematical precision with minimalist aesthetics. Created with lithography and collage on paper, the work features two large arcs positioned within a rectangular frame, each precisely marked with an angle of 265.5 degrees. The drawing is annotated in the artist's hand, giving it a blueprint-like quality, where calculated arcs are presented as art. Venet’s work frequently explores the intersection of mathematics and visual art, inviting viewers to reflect on structure, proportion, and the beauty inherent in geometric forms. The minimalist design and technical notation add a scientific rigor, making it as much a conceptual study as a visual piece.

What is Nouveau Realism?
Nouveau Réalisme is an artistic movement founded in 1960 by art critic Pierre Restany and painter Yves Klein during a collective exhibition at a gallery in Milan. Restany wrote the original manifesto in April 1960, proclaiming the movement. In October of that year, nine artists, including Martial Raysse, Yves Klein, Daniel Spoerri, Jean Tinguely, Arman, Pierre Restany, and three Ultra-Lettrists—Jacques de la Villeglé, François Dufrêne, and Raymond Hains—signed the declaration. In 1961, the movement expanded to include Mimmo Rotella, Niki de Saint Phalle, Gérard Deschamps, and César. The movement emphasized a return to reality in art, often incorporating everyday objects and exploring the boundaries between art and life.
