Since 1963, this steel object made by artist Hans Ittmann has hung on the facade of the then Elout school. It is a Pax Christi mark and was made in the percentage scheme in the construction of the Christian school. The object is made of blue and white sheet steel. Ittmann has used artistic abstractions to depict Christian symbols, because before the XNUMXs this sculpture is quite sleek and modern. Ittmann was inspired by the artist Naum Gabo. The image shows a Christ monogram, a symbol that contains the first two letters of the word “Christ” in Greek Χριστός (Christos). It also often bears the Greek letters Alpha and Omega. The Greek letters Chi and Rho were later read as the Latin letters X and P, making them symbols for the Latin Pax (Peace) or Pax Christi. Pax Christi is an international Catholic peace movement. Due to the demolition of the building, the artwork has been in storage since April 2019.
