In the 1960s Boezem started non-material works, sculptures, spatial objects and works in public space. It was the time that artists opposed to art that was outside society and based on craftsmanship. Like a businessman he carried his proposals in a briefcase and travelled to museums and galleries to sell them. At that time Boezem exhibited part of a polder as a 'ready made', presenting himself as a 'conceptual' artist. 'Land Art' and Cartography also played a role.

In 1968 Boezem participated in two important exhibitions of innovative art: "Op losse Schroeven" at Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and "When Attitudes Become Form" at Kunsthalle Bern (CH). Here Boezem's work was shown alongside that of Carl Andre, Joseph Beuys, Richard Serra, Richard Long, Lawrence Weiner a.o.

In the 90s he realizes several video works and sculptures in public space. 1999, in honor of his 65th birthday, three different exhibitions where held simultaniously in The Netherlands: Kroller-Moller Museum presented his early work, Museum De Paviljoens in Almere showed his landscape-related work and for De Vleeshal in Middelburg Boezem made new work that referred to both.

Apart from those mentioned afore, Boezem showed in museums world wide, such as Museum of Modern Art / New York, The Corcoran Gallery of Art / Washington DC, Empress Place Museum / Singapore, Van Abbemuseum / Eindhoven, Museum of Contemporary Art / Chicago, Municipal Museum of Fine Arts / Kyoto and Royal Institute of British Architects / London.
