dc.description | New "exhibition space" in garden parterres; The grounds of the Rijksmuseum were refurbished along with the building. An new outdoor exhibit area was inaugurated with a Henry Moore exhibit in 2013. The new "outdoor gallery" comprises an area of 14,500 sq. meters. Copijn Tuin- en Landschapsarchitecten took architect Pierre Cuypers' original plan for the gardens of 1901 as their starting point for the new design. The gardens include many original features including sculptures, ponds and lawns to which a number of new elements have been added, such as architect Aldo van Eyck's post-war playground equipment from Amsterdam Nieuw-West and a 19th-century greenhouse with heirloom vegetables. A water maze has also been created based on a design by Danish sculptor and installation artist Jeppe Hein Source: Henry Moore Foundation; http://www.henry-moore.org/ (accessed 7/12/2014) | en_US |
