Untitled, Constructivist sculpture in Rotterdam, Netherlands
The twenty-five meter steel, metal, and marble monument stands as a geometric abstraction incorporating negative space near the Bijenkorf department store.
Russian artist Naum Gabo completed this monumental work in 1954 as part of his exploration of constructivist principles and spatial relationships.
The sculpture represents a shift in public art, integrating mathematical precision with architectural elements to transform the urban landscape of Rotterdam.
The monument holds protected status as a Rijksmonument, ensuring its preservation and maintenance for future generations to experience.
Through its innovative use of materials and spatial design, the structure demonstrates Gabo's theories about movement and time in three-dimensional form.
