The eclecticism of Rolf Engelen’s work makes it impossible to encapsulate in a single word. He works in the public space, in project-based contexts as well as on commission, and he is involved in several collaborative ventures that operate in the fields of social sculpture and language. He also produces autonomous work. Engelen was the co-founder of Museum Van Nagsael, the smallest museum in the world, and the initiator of the ‘Tweedekansplant-bedrijf’ (Second-Chance Plant Company), which has been saving and reviving plants thrown out with the household garbage since 1997. He often involves the public in his working process, such as the residents of a neighbourhood for which he is creating a sculpture. The principle of gift-giving plays an important part in this.
