English term or phrase: Smith Heavy Industries presents
Actually, the expression is "Young-hae Chang Heavy Industries presents" followed by the name of the art work. It's like what you see at the beginning of a movie.
Marc Voge
Smith Heavy Industries stelt voor...
Explanation:
That is how it is said for e.g. movies, theatre plays etc.

"Presenteert" is a correct translation, but IMHO "stelt voor" is "more Dutch".

Dear King Darling,

Thanks for the very quick reply! I really appreciate it. Just one question. Is "presenteert" the third person singular or plural? In English and French we use the singular: "YOUNG-HAE CHANG HEAVY INDUSTRIES PRESENTS" and "YOUNG-HAE CHANG INDUSTRIES LOURDES PRÉSENTE." Is it the same in Dutch? Yours truly, Marc Voge, [email protected]

disagree  Linda Ferwerda: "voorstellen" you do with a person, but not in case of an "object"
