Photo art based on a picture of a rolling gate of Gas Cleaning West at blast furnace 5 in the Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord, Duisburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany The shot was created by intentional moving the camera (intentional camera movement, ICM) and subsequent composition using copies of the same shot. The Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord (also known as “LaPaNo” or “LaPaDu” for short) is a landscape park covering around 180 hectares surrounding a disused steelworks in Duisburg-Meiderich. The former plant was founded in 1902 by August Thyssen as a “joint-stock company for metallurgical operations” to supply his Siemens-Martin steelworks in Bruckhausen and Styrum, and went into operation on May 16, 1903, with the firing up of blast furnace 1. In 1985, blast furnace 5 was shut down after just twelve years of operation due to overcapacity on the European steel market, making it the last remaining blast furnace. In the 1990s, the halls, buildings, and outdoor areas were redesigned according to plans by architects Peter Latz + Partner. In 1994, the park was opened to the public.
