The work ‘Anton de Komplein’ was presented by Katrin Korfmann at CBK Zuidoost in 2018 to mark the 50th anniversary of the Bijlmer in Amsterdam-Zuidoost. The Anton de Komplein a square named after the Surinamese writer and resistance fighter - was used as a location for the event ‘Ode aan de Bijlmer’ (Ode to the Bijlmer). The work stems from the source material that Korfmann photographed during the realisation of a commission for the new Judicial Complex Zaanstad, for which she observed four different squares in Amsterdam from above. By using countless versions of the Anton de Komplein and combining them into one fictional image, she created her own version of this square, independent of time and events.
Bradwolff & Partners presented the work during Big Art 2019.
