Quotes from reviews Deltawerk //, Dutch Hydrodynamics Laboratory

 

 

 

— Britta Peters, offical ambassador of Deltawerk // (curator Skulptur Projekte Münster,  Urbane Künste Ruhr)

"My first impression was that Deltawerk // was a colossal wall, and I found it hugely ... monumental. As we walked closer to this wall, we suddenly saw that there was an entrance to the space. And we found the artwork to be much more subtle than this huge concrete wall would suggest."
