It’s not every day that our sand is used for creating a sculpture. It’s even less common that that sculpture is designed by a living legend of Czech fine arts.

Kurt Gebauer’s works can be seen in galleries and private collections all around the world.

Although Gebauer has used sand for some of his smaller creations in the past, this time he had something much bigger in mind – a landscape in the form of a woman lying on her belly that ended up weighing 1,200 tons, and measuring 42 metres in length, 12 metres in width, and 2.6 metres in height. Once more, our CEMEX team proved ready for any kind of challenge, technical or artistic!

We’re happy we could support the art of an internationally acclaimed Czech artist like Kurt Gebauer, thanks to the efforts of our colleagues from the sandpit in Kluk.
