Rotterdam
Plantage Building
In 1986 the
association of home owners of the Plantage building in Rotterdam Holland,
commissioned Lucien den Arend to make a proposal for a site specific work for
the entrance hall of their apartment house. He was also asked to make a scheme
for the colors in the building.
This project was initiated around the time
that the monumental concrete construction
Homage to Oud and van Doesburg, Marconi
Waltz was originating on the Rotterdam Marconi Square. These four panels
actually represent the four projections of the Marconiplein sculpture. The
perpendicular planes are projected as white squares and the edges as black
lines. Two sets of two panels are identical; but one of each is rotated 90˚.
