Jacques Moeschal was one of the first artists to take an interest in concrete, not as a base but as a sculptural material. From the 1950s onwards, he placed gigantic installations along roads, a sort of beacon replacing the bell towers of yesteryear, monuments as an ode to the Automobile Queen. This work from 1999, ‘Signe de Lumière’, is a 10-metre-high tripod made from brushed stainless steel.
