is a
term coined by Aldo Aymonino and George Hascup. The publication
contemporary public space - unvolumetric architecture by Aldo
Aymonino and Valerio Paolo Mosco, published by SKIRA in 2006, shows my
earthwork homage to El Lissizky in
Lelystad The Netherlands on pages 266 and 267 of the book.
My
sculpture has evolved from surfaces delineating space to space
delineating my sculpture. In the beginning, when I made bronze
sculptures, I was always bothered by the fact that the core was still
inside of the sculpture. A bronze sculpture has to produce a sound when
you tap it - like a bell. So I would make a hole in the surface to take
the core material out and close it by welding afterwards. But soon this
inside space started to have my increasing attention. The sculpture on
the left does not have a closed inside space - its interior is its
exterior. Its mass is merely a demarcation of space. This sculpture
actually turned out to be a deconstruction of my earlier sculpture.
1981 - spatial delineation, planes - perpendicular junction -
200x400x200 x2cm thick steel - proposal for the Bijlmer police station
and fire station in Amsterdam (see
the result of the second proposal) - this sculpture has yet to be
executed
