Bernar Venet (French, 1941) Position of Two Angles of 167° and 180° - 1979 Acrylic on canvas 120 x 120 cm (in two pieces) Titled, signed, and dated on verso Provenance: Galerie Denise René Hans Mayer, Düsseldorf (1980) The Robert and Suzanne Pannier Collection, Bruges Position of Two Angles of 167° and 180° is a two-piece acrylic on canvas painting that exemplifies Bernar Venet's conceptual application of mathematical data to visual art. The work belongs to a specific series from the late 1970s in which he focused on elementary geometric figures -specifically lines, arcs, and angles -as his primary subjects. Divided across two distinct canvas panels, the painting maps out the exact angular trajectories specified in the title. Rather than utilizing the canvas for painterly gesture or symbolic representation, Venet presents the angles as literal, self-referential objects, rendering a purely rational mathematical proposition in physical space.
