"Not in my back yard," created by artist Rob Voerman in 2009, is a distinctive art installation located in Amsterdam-Zuidoost. Originally designed for a biennale, this artwork combines steel, glass, and polycarbonate, embodying a multifunctional space that serves as a blend of a shed, nightclub, church, and bar. It symbolizes the community's need for versatile spaces and has been a prominent feature of local culture. The installation has moved locations, recently being placed at NDSM Square. Visitors can appreciate its unique design and the artist's vision. While there is no admission fee, accessibility varies due to its outdoor setting. As of April 2024, Voerman is searching for a new home for the artwork, making it a transient part of Amsterdam's dynamic art scene.
