Katwijk
aan Zee
The city of Katwijk aan Zee is located on the coast
of Holland. It has it's North Sea beaches. When the city commissioned Lucien den
Arend to make a sculpture for the new Katwijk public swimming pool, he made
walks on the windy beach where the waves inspired him to make a sculpture that
was actually different from his other work. The material and the technique are
the same, but the way of constructing the sculpture has more affinity with the
reality of the existing visual world than with the reality of the geometric
abstract process of designing and constructing his work.
