  A survey of Bernar Venet's oeuvre. McEviley goes back to the artist's beginnings and traces his development by highlighting the conceptual and philosophical fulcrums of each period from the 1950's to the present day. McEviley writes: In the 1960s Venet had in fact made significant alterations to the shape of art theory. The idea-and the practice-of monosemy amounted to an actual structural change, not just an attitudinal one. Venet's feeling was that aesthetic delectation was invalidated by its subjectivity, and relativity was an attitudinal change characteristic of the generation of artists who matured in the 1960s.
