The three new series of sculptures on display were equally arresting in their concomitant valorization of process and product, calling to mind the work of Nouveaux Réalistes, such as Yves Klein, who used the letters IKB for his own International Klein Blue. "Cans" consists of stacks of raw concrete blocks, each layer balanced atop crushed beer cans, suggesting those that construction workers bury in foundations and walls on building sites as traces of their presence. In "Struts," adjustable metal poles ascend to the ceiling from bases in the form of one or more 20-liter paint buckets. The power of the poles appears to have exploded the seams of the buckets, causing their colorful contents to drip and pool on the floor. While these creations conjure César's "Compression" pieces as well as Niki de Saint Phalle's gunshot paintings, they also literalize the formula for calculating work in physics, i.e., force multiplied by the distance through which it acts. Finally, for "Bases," Sabatier positioned large or small paint pots between a concrete block and a pedestal. Again, the weight of the cubes seems to have burst the canisters open, their liquids staining each pedestal and collecting around it. Such spectral streams and puddles imbue the artist's otherwise brute, minimalist objects with an expressiveness that underscores the dynamism with which he has assembled their utterly basic elements.
