The drawings for Nine Towers (for Jene) were originally a gift from the artist to his colleague Jene Highstein, who later donated them to Kivik Art Centre for construction.
The work is representative of minimalist artist Sol LeWitt’s practice, with its mathematical precision and strict compositions, all executed in simple building materials. A row of columns, a temple, a play of shadows that challenges the eye as it stands out against the sea.

The blueprints for the construction of Nine Towers (for Jene) was originally a gift from the artist to his friend and colleague Jene Highstein, who later gave them to Kivik Art Centre. The structure is a signature work for the minimalist Sol LeWitt with its mathematical edge and rigid composition, always built in simple, ordinary materials. A row of pillars, a temple with shadows playing over the surface as it stands out against the sea.
