Monuments
Musis Resistance Monument
In 2004 I designed the Resistance Monument in Arnhem. The poet Jos Pauw wrote the text – “Most people remain silent, a few speak up and act”
From 2005 until 2015 the Resistance Momument adorned the rear facade of the Parkzaal of Musis Sacrum on the Velperplein.
Jos Pauw
Rijn embankment Resistance Monument
After 10 years the monument had to give way for the building of a new concert hall. It was disassembled and stored. I was asked by Arnhem City Council to look for a new site and to design a new monument. In 2017, in a modified form and making use of the old panels, it was reinstalled by the Rijn river in Arnhem.
