Artist of the Day, February 16, 2022: Benoist Van Borren, a French minimalist sculptor (#1498)

 Benoist Van Borren is a French skilled minimalist sculptor. He masters the art of cast concrete, bringing to life this rough, dense material and its monolithic blocks. Each of these blocks presents us with an enigma to decipher. They are the results of abstract mathematics and geometric games, guided by an indiscernable golden number, fruits from the imagination of an architect with an artists soul. Caskets from a subversive subconscious, which question, and stimulate our contemplation and observations.

Benoist’s dense and massive blocks witness the intensity of his fascination for a complex art in his conception, and skilled refinement of its appearance.
