Xavier Veilhan

The first time I saw Xavier Veilhan's work was at the Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal.  It was a lifesize black geometric steel horse.  From then on in, I was a total fan.  While I didn't see Veilhan's work at Versailles in person, the installations are nevertheless impressive via photographs.  I am of course in love with his mobiles, for their scale and simplicity.  Another piece that caught my eye was Veilhan's Xavier sculpture, which lives in the atrium of Aldo's offices.
