The publication Undone presents three recent proposals by artist Hans van Houwelingen and, through their mediation, one of the most remarkable discourses on public art in the Netherlands. Each of the three projects is discussed by three authors. The imaginative or political traction of the proposals is investigated in relation to rapidly shifting notions of citizenship, views and uses of commemoration. The reader functions perhaps as an editorial scale model of the ampler engagement that Hans van Houwelingen's propositions require of us.
