Abstract
Constant was as an artist, most known for his interdisciplinary work and magnum opus New Babylon. A future potential society without labour, unbound by place and time, inhabited by man at play; the ‘homo ludens’. He worked extensively on the project between 1956 and 1974. During this period he experimented with installations emphasizing on its user and spectator, which will form the centre point of this thesis. What was Constant’s aim with these experiments and what was he trying to convey? These installations are also covered as a subject to be put in a broader context that up until now has been overlooked or not been published: How do these installations relate to other art and architecture movements; a broader context?
