Antony Gormley brings to the Bregenz Kunsthaus until 4 October his new work Clearing V: up to 12 kilometers of raw metal rod that arc from floor to ceiling and wall to wall, creating a three-dimensional drawing in space. The installation acts as a vector field, encouraging the viewer to move through its structure, and in so doing disrupts the authority of a single-point perspective, necessitating instead a constant renegotiation of the visual field: “I was trying to destroy the fixed co-ordinates of a room and make a space/time continuum (a line without end) that was both a thing and a drawing,” says Gormley.
