"Homage to El Lissitzky
1984-1986
Lelystad, Netherlands
Homage to El Lissitzky is an earthwork located on the test circuit of the Dutch transport centre, an area reclaimed from the sea and drained. The designer was able to make use of 17,000 cubic metres of leftover earth to create this crescent, whose summit rises to the maximum height permitted by the amount of earth available. The idea of the project is taken from Land Art, the concept of a simple geometric figure identifying a space."
