Last Sunday the exhibition CalderNow opened in the Kunsthal, where the 1963 model of Le Tamanoir can be admired. The 'real' statue by the American sculptor Alexander Calder measures approximately 6.50 x 3.20 x 2.90 meters and has been in Hoogvliet since 1965!
On the occasion of CalderNow Together with Art Index Rotterdam, we are organizing a surprising art walk in Hoogvliet on Sunday 28 November with Le Tamanoir in the lead. Walk along works of art by Calder and art colleagues such as Henk Visch, Ian Pieters, Ek van Zanten, Dick and Chris Elffers, Gust Romijn, Bob Bonies and Jan Schoonhoven. We walk through a post-war residential area, in nature, along the river and view art and architecture. In the spring of 2022, from March to May, a number of walks through Hoogvliet will be organized.
