“Bernar Venet seems to be the most intellectual of conceptual artists, but his intellectuality is a means to a romantic end – what Kant called “the feeling of the sublime.”  Venet has had a life-long affair with mathematics, but the mathematical murals – his descriptive term – that are its grand climax, are more sublime than mathematical, or rather use mathematics as a springboard to the sublime.  They are in fact an inspired rendering of what Kant called ‘the mathematically sublime’.” Donald Kuspit
