Gemini Tango
In 1984 Lucien den Arend was commissioned to
redesign the Oranjeplein (Orange Square) and a local housing association
(Gecombineerd Woningbeheer) ordered Gemini Tango. The town's bandstand
used to be on the location where the work now stands, in the center
of the square.
The title has a double connotation: Gemini,
from the shape of the Gemini Capsule - Tango, the type of movement
the two cone segments make, relating to the history of the location.
The other meanings at the same time are Gemini - twins, and tango
- from the saying "it takes two to tango".
