The Art in Esbjerg

Friday - 5 May 2000
Esbjerg - Denmark



At Sædding Beach in Esbjerg you can see The Man by The Sea made by the Danish sculptor Svend Wiig Hansen. The four giant men were made in 1995 and it took seven month before they were finished. Altogether the four men weigh 350 ton and stands nine meter tall.

Ved Sædding strand i Esbjerg, kan man se "Manden ved havet", der er lavet af den danske skulptør Svend Wiig Hansen. De fire kæmpe mænd blev lavet i 1995 og det tog syv måneder før de var færdige. Tilsammen vejer de fire mænd 350 ton og rager 9 meter op..









Walking in between the giants makes you feel very small and you may think at the men as living creatures, maybe from another planet?

They are fascinating and overwhelming at the same time.

Når man går mellem kæmperne, føler man sig meget lille. Det er nemt, at forestille sig mændene som levende væsner, måske de stammer fra en anden planet?

De er både fascinerende og overvældende.
