Skulpturen Flakhaven på Flakhaven i Odense. Mange menter, at skulpturen ikke ligefrem er skøn at skue, men jeg synes bestemt det er et stemninsfyldt og markant stykke kunst. Byens 1000 jubilæum værdig.

Dansk: Skulpturen Flakhaven på Flakhaven i Odense. Mange menter, at skulpturen ikke ligefrem er skøn at skue, men jeg synes bestemt det er et stemninsfyldt og markant stykke kunst. Byens 1000 års jubilæum værdig.
Kunstneren er den verdenskendte Robert Jacobsen (1912 - 1993 (Arbejdstitel: Bylandskab), 1988, materiale: Jern
Bylandskab er typisk for Robert Jacobsen. Han tager udganspunkt i by landskabet og arbejder med et spændingsfelt skabt af brugen af abstrakte geometriske former overfor abstrakte organiske former i en tredimensionel komposition. Skulpturens udgangspunkt er dog stadig figurativt og således anes i formerne både byens bygninger, skorstene, røg, skyer og træer. Den blev modtaget med meget delte meninger og blev af flere borger i debatten fremstillet som et elitært statusprojekt for kommunen, der ikke passede til hverken pladsen, byen eller dens borgeres smag.
English: The sculpture Flakhaven at Flakhaven in Odense. Many people think that the sculpture is not exactly beautiful to look at, but I certainly think it is an evocative and distinctive piece of art. Worthy of the city's 1000th anniversary.
The artist is the world-famous Robert Jacobsen (1912 - 1993 (Working title: Urban landscape), 1988, material: Iron
Urban landscape is typical of Robert Jacobsen. He takes his starting point in the urban landscape and works with a field of tension created by the use of abstract geometric shapes versus abstract organic shapes in a three-dimensional composition. However, the starting point of the sculpture is still figurative and thus the shapes show the city's buildings, chimneys, smoke, clouds and trees. It was received with very divided opinions and was presented by several citizens in the debate as an elitist status project for the municipality, which did not suit either the square, the city or its citizens' tastes.
