Since the 1970s, several landscape art works have been realized in the province of Flevoland, examples of which are the Observatory (Robert Morris) (1971-1977) by Robert Morris, The Green Cathedral (1978-1996) by Marinus Boezem and Polderland Garden of Love and Fire (1992-1997 ) by Daniel Libeskind. In 2001, the province gave the municipality of Lelystad money to purchase a work of art. A few years later, the British artist Gormley was approached by the municipality to create the sixth landscape artwork in the province of Flevoland. The artist Antony Gormley (1950) is involved with art in which portrays a human figure. One of his best-known works is Angel of the North, a 20 m (66 ft) steel figure with wings, which was unveiled in Gateshead in 1998.
