This roof, sandwiched between the mirrored high-rises on the Weena, the Weenatoren, and the Schiekadeblok, is known among Rotterdammers primarily for the dangerously overhanging red BMW sticking out of the roof on the Poortstraat side. This astonishing scene is one of the most famous artworks by the collective Kunst & Vaarwerk. This doll-like art object has been hanging from the facade since 1987. The artwork fits into this environment because this commercial spot celebrates prosperity and money, and also breaks the clean lines of the surrounding buildings with a playful touch.
Kunst & Vaarwerk was an artists' group consisting of Cor Kraat (1946), Hans Citroen (1946), and Willem van Drunen (1947) and existed from 1979 to 1992. Kunst & Vaarwerk was a Dutch Pop Art variant that struck back at the harsh urban environment with humor and irony. The scale of the port city demanded art of grandeur and boldness, but it is also an art against forgetfulness. The group collaborated with the Rotterdam business community to finance the projects and realized various works in public spaces.
