Description
Information
In the summer of 2013 a 9 meter high old water tank in Keflavik, Iceland , was painted by the Toyists with the theme ‘Uppspretta’. This word means a source of splashing energy.
Eleven Toyists worked about 7 weeks in appalling conditions. It was cold , it was raining a lot and also the strong wind provided the necessary damage to the canvas roof that was installed around the tank. The working days were long, but finally the painted water tank was unveiled with great interest on September, 6th. The people of Keflavik reacted very positive and heartening. Also the mayor of Keflavik gave his appreciation during his speech and told with pride that “his” work of art will be a major public attraction in the future.
Limited Edition of 100 (numbered & signed). The hardback book is packed in a handmade book cover, made from the burlap coffee bags originally used around the water tower in Iceland.
PLUS: image of the Legend of Uppspretta, piezo graphic, limited edition of 100 (numbered & signed)
PLUS: photo of the water tower by Lex Banning (Amsterdam), limited edition of 100 (numbered & signed)
