You can see more unusual objects in Arboretum Belmonte between 14 June and 15 September. A plastic bench that looks like a mangrove root, for example, a live herbarium or a chicken run in which a cosmopolitan chicken is created. These objects are part of the Beelden op de Berg (sculptures on the hill) art festival. Artists give their take – often inspired by Wageningen scientists on the friction between authenticity and fake. And what better time to ponder this question than when wandering through the greenery of the arboretum?
Garden of art
This is Batara, a concrete open-air pavilion built by the architect Anne Holtrop.
