 Pendulum tells about the creation of the sculpture Pendulum for the European Medicines Agency. The book not only describes the procedure that led to the selection of Gijs Assmann as the artist to make this sculpture; it also chronicles how the design came into being, the manner in which it was executed by Schmees Casting in Pirna (Germany), and the installation of the work at the Amsterdam Zuidas.

 The texts by Gijs Frieling (senior art advisor to the Government Architect) and Gijs Assmann about the sculpture’s design process.
