CITIES - sculptures and land art

Lelystad

LAND ART - Lelystad Holland - sculptures (site specific and public sculpture) in cities in Europe and America by Lucien den Arend - his site specific sculptures ordered by the city of Lelystad

1985|1986 land art project with red steel element - 100x200x7.50m - test circuit and test center of the national Road and Transport Department of The Netherlands - Lelystad NL (the work has been demolished in the early nineties)

Jean Leering, the advisor to the the chief government architect of The Netherlands asked me to make a proposal for a large land art project in the middle of the Netherlands. After having made preliminary sketches and models Jean Leering and I agreed on one of my concepts and the chief government architect commissioned me to make a proposal for an earth work for the Test Circuit and Test center of the National Road and Transport Department in Lelystad a new town in the Flevopolder - in the old Zuiderzee (later IJsselmeer).
