Indeterminate Line is a 1987 oxidized steel public art sculpture by Bernar Venet installed in Beverly Hills, California.[1] [2] A later 2004 Cor-ten steel version is installed outside Denver's Colorado Convention Center at Speer Boulevard, in the U.S. state of Colorado.[3] It was installed at a cost of US$600,000. The 33-foot sculpture takes the form of a linear torqued circle.[4]

Venet's related work, Two Indeterminate Lines (1993), consisting of two circular steel coils, is in the public art collection of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.[5]
