About "Slavery monument and STC building"

About the artwork

The Slavernijmonument is a monument commemorating the Dutch slavery past and is located in Rotterdam. The monument is the design of Alex da Silva and stands on the Lloydkade in the Lloydkwartier neighbourhood in the Delfshaven district.
The Slavery Monument was unveiled on 16 June 2013. The adjacent STC-Group college (Scheepvaart en Transport College) adopted the monument.
The monument is made of Corten steel and hot-dip galvanised steel and has a length of 900 centimetres, a height of 450 centimetres and a width of 120 centimetres. The sculpture takes the form of a stylised ship, on top of which figures dance towards their freedom. Of the four dancing slaves, the first is still fully chained and the last - while dancing - has broken free completely.

History of slavery in Rotterdam
In the 17th to 19th centuries, weapons, pottery and spirits were traded in the Lloyd Quarter. These goods were shipped to Africa where they were exchanged for slaves. Rotterdam ships then took people to Surinam and the Dutch Antilles to exchange for goods such as coffee and sugar. Anno 2013, more than 80,000 descendants of slaves live in Rotterdam.
