Titled, “Lettuce Field As Big As A Sky-Scraper Building” this agro-art piece by Helmut Dick is indeed the size of the neighboring building. The 10,000 lettuce heads make up 12,000 square meters, making up what appears to be the shadow. The piece was a temporary installation in Berlin-Neuköln in 2001, the largest area in Germany of apartment towers. The installation lasted the life of the lettuce before undergoing a 5 week harvest period where the piece became food that was given to the local inhabitants.
