Land art aims to reconcile art and nature. Land art artists create a dialogue between their imaginations and natural spaces. ECT sites lend themselves to this creativity.<\/p>\n

The various land art projects carried out on ECT sites are the fruit of encounters with artists intrigued by our worksites, challenged by the transformation of the sites that takes place, by the nobility of the excavated materials.<\/p>\n

ECT supports their approach, which gives new meaning to our developments and takes a symbolic look at excavated earth from the construction industry. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

ECT wanted an exceptional layout for its largest excavated soil reclamation site in Villeneuve-sous-Dammartin (77). So we asked Antoine Grumbach to design a large-scale project. With earth as a material.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

This will be the land art and aerial art work “Les Yeux du Ciel”: 2 eyes 400 meters long, inscribed in the site. The work can be seen from the air by planes from the nearby Roissy CDG airport. It will become a landscaped park, surrounded by fields and open to the public, when the ECT site closes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The western eye is completed. Earthworks began in May 2022, and were completed in spring 2023 with the planting of the iris and surrounding trees. Construction of L’\u0152il Est will start in 2025.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Antoine Grumbach is an architect, urban planner and artist. He was awarded the Grand Prix de l’Urbanisme in 1992.<\/p>\n

The President of ECT and his team expressed their enthusiasm for this
Aerial Art project. In keeping with the site’s unusual proportions,
a major project was needed. He called for a twofold dimension for the Yeux-du-Ciel: the temporary dimension of hosting events, combined with a permanent vocation focused on the two irises illustrating mankind’s links between heaven and earth.
