Reusable because it can be folded, stowed away and the texts can be adjusted.  Folded inside the frameworks (and these can be placed in the pedestal). And the texts can be adjusted with turnable beams for the reasons to commemorate, the achievements and the characteristics. Life size and the audience is able turn the beams so to change\/reuse the commemorative part of it. \n\nThe statue will be made of iron and because of using nuts and bolts it can be build up and broken down again for shipment. It will first be made at my workspace in Amsterdam and  as a smaller package shipped. At Bienalsur I would like to build it up myself \u2013 with some assistance.\nThe nuts and bolts will be locked with a special coating to block vandalism in case necessary.\n\nWhy this work? Normally these statues are actually quite static \u2013 but views on history do change \u2013 this statue is an attempt to make it dynamic (even that it consists of rectangular frames)  \u2013 and give people the possibility to reflect upon the nature of commemorating.","space":"Preferable on a square \u2013 and even more preferable in front of one ot the official equestrian statues of BA.\nThe audience should be able to touch it and turn the beams to show their favourite texts (in Spanish).\nThe dimensions are about: 150x1400x600 (width x depth x height)","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"PJ","surname":"Bruyniks","email":"pjbruyniks@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"NVHCFKRF4","address":"Hoogte Kadijk 205","city":"Amsterdam","nacionality":"Dutch","country_id":"169","birthdate":"1962-08-17T23:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1962-08-17T23:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+31627215509","web":"http:\/\/www.pjbruyniks.nl\/"}
