Commissions - ING House Rotterdam - Circularity

To ensure that all the offices and the ING-houses, have their own and distinctive appearance, artists are often given commissions to create an artwork especially made for an ING-building. This creates a uniform, yet unique atmosphere in all ING buildings. In the case of ING-house Rotterdam circularity was the top priority during the construction, and the same goes for the works of art that Boris Tellegen made especially for this location. In his Compilations 1/ 2/ 3, he used materials from former ING locations and left-over building materials from this ING Huis, such as curtains, cardboard and old cables.

All the works of art in this ING- House have their own special connection with the theme of circularity.

Boris Tellegen (1968)

Do you ever search for balance between order and chaos? Well, Boris does this by constantly changing the scale and the perspective of his artworks. He examines the field of tension between planning and coincidence. The artist also compares his working process to how cities are built – such as Rotterdam, where another new layer is added to whatever already exists. By using materials in a surprising manner, and because of his will to do things his own way, Boris’s work shows daring, progress and change.

This ING- House is located in the iconic Holbein House office building, which can be seen by its colour scheme. It’s the same as in the mosaic outside by the artist Louis van Roode (1914-1964).
