Eastern Docklands

Industrial Monument is a work of art located in Amsterdam-Oost. It consists of a former railway platform with an overseer's house and a wagon. The monument is a creation by (Atelier) Joep van Lieshout and is installed in the public space on Cruquiusweg in the Eastern Docklands. The monument came about thanks to the East Docklands Art Working Group, which asked the artist to create an artwork from a dilapidated freight wagon as a tribute to the industrial past of the area (which was once crisscrossed with train tracks and included a cleaning station), particularly the abattoir. Van Lieshout then noticed the similarly dilapidated overseer's house on an old platform between the tracks. Although it was slated for demolition, Van Lieshout decided to restore the house to its original state and declare it a monument, as a protest against the renewal frenzy of humanity, the Dutch, and the Amsterdammers in particular. (Het Parool, 09-08-2017). Upon completion, it turned out that Van Lieshout had focused all his energy on the overseer's house, leaving the freight wagon unchanged. Not everyone realized that the two objects (the train set and the house) were meant to form a single entity. This became evident when fellow artist Ronald van der Meijs was asked in 2008 to refurbish the wagon. He added a container made of jute bags, symbolizing the transition from traditional freight transport to the shipping container, one of the reasons why this port area, which was not suitable for container transport, fell into disuse. In 2008, the overseer's house was repurposed as an exhibition space and was named Museum Perron Oost in 2013, the smallest museum in the world. The objects are part of a historical route through Amsterdam-Oost (art, architecture, objects). Het Parool reported on August 9, 2017, in a section by Sophia Zürcher, that this Industrial Monument hardly fits within Joep van Lieshout's broader oeuvre, standing out significantly from his other works.
