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 />
