hommage à<br />
PIerre Coret<br />
de thIerry<br />
ehrmann<br />
et de la<br />
demeure <strong>du</strong><br />
<strong>Chaos</strong><br />
La <strong>Demeure</strong> <strong>du</strong> <strong>Chaos</strong> est en deuil,<br />
un juste parmi les justes s'est éteint<br />
brutalement ce samedi 26 janvier<br />
<strong>2013</strong> en la personne de Pierre Coret.<br />
Pierre était pour nous ce forgeron<br />
de génie aux doigts en or<br />
qui avait le don de comprendre<br />
les volumes et leurs âmes d'acier.<br />
Il est difficile de rencontrer dans<br />
sa vie un être aussi humaniste, altruiste,<br />
dont le désir de faire <strong>du</strong><br />
bien n'avait aucune limite. Chacune<br />
des sculptures monumentales<br />
que j'ai édifiées avec lui restera à jamais<br />
gravée dans mon cœur. La<br />
<strong>Demeure</strong> <strong>du</strong> <strong>Chaos</strong> et moi-même<br />
lui dédions la sculpture "The Nail<br />
- Le Clou", sculpture de 9 mètres<br />
de haut sur laquelle seront gravés<br />
notre hommage ainsi que notre<br />
amitié indéfectible à ce grand<br />
Monsieur, Maître des Forges.<br />
