The Wall, Steel sculpture in Amsterdam-Noord, Netherlands.
The Wall rises 5 meters high on Meeuwenlaan, featuring a red steel construction with circular perforations throughout its 15-meter length.
Artist Alfred Eikelenboom created this steel structure in 1987 as a boundary marker between the traditional Vogelbuurt area and newer residential developments.
The steel structure represents the physical and social transformations of Amsterdam-Noord through its placement between different architectural periods and neighborhoods.
The sculpture remains accessible throughout the year, situated on a public lawn area that provides clear views from multiple angles.
The perforated design of the red steel wall creates patterns of light and shadow that change with the movement of the sun across Meeuwenlaan.
