SCULPTURES in CITIES | PUBLIC SCULPTURE
site specific sculptures, earthworks and landscape designs realized
by the Finnish/Dutch sculptor Lucien den Arend
Dordrecht
In 1988 the city of Dordrecht commissioned Lucien den
Arend to design and make a sculpture for the playground of the John F. Kennedy School.
Children had to be able to play with and on the work without any damage being done to
either the work nor to the children. Lucien den Arend had worked more for playgrounds; and
also in this case he made no concessions as far as his concept is concerned. The result is
always a sculpture and never a playground furnishing.
