Acting like a signal, the chosen colour, red, and the luminous area, in the center, attracts attention. Stable and solid, the square-shaped pedestal balances out the mysterious effect produced by the luminous shimmer inside the piece. Inside the pyramid, the artist put in artificial suspension words related to the main values attributed to the work environment, i.e. human beings and economics. Fifty-something such values are thus kept captive under the pyramid, along with a powerful laser that illuminates each piece of suspended mica on which one of the values has been written.</span></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-mentionslegalesillust"> <div class="field-label">Mention(s) légale(s) des illustrations:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> Copyright détenu par des photographes et/ou des musées dont la permission/reproduction n’a pas été obtenue </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-crdit-photographique"> <div class="field-label">Photo credits:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> © Claire Sarrasin </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-texte"> <div class="field-label">Text of the artwork:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-above"> <p>Dieu Créateur Univers Amour .....</p><h3>At the bottom of the pyramid:</h3><p>Concilier épanouissement humain avec efficacité - rentabilité de l’entreprise oui… Mission Possible, grâce aux valeurs dans la pyramide, apportées par les nouveaux outils de management !</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-thet field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Text theme:&nbsp;</div> Values </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-theo field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Artwork theme:&nbsp;</div> <p>Knowledge and spirituality, human beings, economy</p> </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-dimension-de-loeuvre"><legend>Dimensions</legend> </fieldset> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-autres-informations"><legend>Other information</legend><div class="field field-type-link field-field-biar field-inline"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd label-inline"> <div class="field-label field-label-inline-first"> Artist&#039;s biography:&nbsp;</div> <a href="http://www.clairesarrasin.qc.ca/cs_cv.htm" target="user">Claire Sarrasin</a> </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> http://plepuc.org/en/artwork/pyramide#comments Sculpture Permanent Interior Teaching and research Integration of art and architecture Random Acrylic Optical fibre 45.504077 -73.622415 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 15:27:57 +0000 Marie-Claude Langevin 632 at http://plepuc.org
