Bernar VENET


The Port of San Diego, in partnership with Scott White Contemporary Art, is proud to present a monumental exhibition of large-scale sculptures by world-renowned artist, Bernar Venet. This historic exhibition encompasses thirteen steel sculptures placed at key locations within the Port’s waterfront district as well as at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, the San Diego Museum of Art, the San Diego International Airport, Liberty Station (NTC), the Marriott Hotel & Marina and the Omni Hotel. This is the first solo exhibition of this caliber and magnitude to take place in Southern California.

This is an exciting time culturally for San Diego. The working waterfront provides a powerful landscape for the artist’s work. The exhibit is free and can be enjoyed by residents and visitors at key locations.

  4. How neat is this! Actually, though, the San Diego waterfront would be the perfect place for just about any exhibition!

    Enjoy!

  5. The waterfront seems to be developing nicely. The Padres stadium was still in the planning stages when I left... I'll have to check it all out on the web some day soon.

    Enjoying your beach strolls? Have a beautiful weekend!

  9. Hi, surfing around to random blogs today, a relaxing Sunday..and I came upon yours. Lovely photography, my parents have been to San Diego several times but I've never been to California. They have always spoken so warmly about San Diego so I hope to visit someday. In the meantime I'll enjoy your photography of the area- you're really an excellent photographer!!
