    Artist: Nina Beier
    Nina Beier examines the sculptural tradition of public equestrian monuments. The popularity of these statues peaked during the reign of Louis XIV. He believed that a hierarchical ranking of men on horseback was the ideal way to display power. Beier shows us the ebb and flow of power by using the horse as a heightening effect. She collected monuments that were no longer in a public place and placed them in formation at the edge of the sea.

    A wonderful work! For Beaufort, Nina Beier collected statues that are no longer in the public space. She installed them in formation near the sea. Placing them in the unique setting of beach and sea, the element of prestige is replaced by drama, and the statues look as if one moment of a forgotten battle by the sea was cast in bronze.
