As a wanderer between the worlds of art, architecture and design, Belgian artist Arne Quinze succeeds in blending opposites and constantly generates crossovers between the most diverse disciplines. With The Sequence he unites urban art and politics by designing a colossal sculpture in the city center of Brussels. The 80-meter long installation made from wood and concrete connects the Flemish Parliament to the House of Representatives physically and symbolically, acting as a bridge between the public and the government neighbors. Similar to his Cityscape installation, aimed to give new life to a once stagnant urban landscape, The Sequence is an artistic intervention in public space that promotes urban interaction and communication.

This book documents the dynamic artwork in all its facets from the artist’s original vision to its implementation. In addition to the striking photographs of both the construction process and the finished structure, The Sequence includes hand-drawn sketches and preliminary models along with an introduction written by Arne Quinze himself.

With The Sequence sculpture, Quinze has proved once again, the engaging power of art in the urban context and enthused visitors from around the world and inspired discussion between culture aficionados, politicians and residents.
