OBSERVATORIUM IN STROOM DEN HAAG
Stroom Den Haag presents the first major survey of Observatorium's impressive international body of work. The projects by this artist group are objects that virtually without exception are intended to create an opportunity for concentration, contemplation and observation. They are often monumental works of art erected alongside highways, in city parks, in new residential developments and near industrial heritage sites.
