+++ What the Euro sculpture has to do with a teddy... +++
The € sculpture in front of the former ECB building at Willy-Brandt-Platz is known far beyond Frankfurt/Main. It weighs 50 tons, is 14 meters high and is illuminated by LEDs at night.
The "golden" teddy, which decorates my new office in Berlin since this week, is just too delicate with a weight of about 1.2kg and 35cm height.
But both have one thing in common: they are each from the mind of the artist Ottmar Hörl, designed, made and given away by him.
So in both dwells artistic design and imagination.
I collect art and artistic works for a few years, which is why I was of course very happy about the "new work colleague in matching look". Nice when one is made so a joy.
The sculpture, the bear, originally comes from the project "Teddy - The forgotten dream" by Hörl from 2007.
Incidentally, the former ECB building, the Eurotower, now houses the headquarters of the ECB's Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM). The main building of the ECB, on the other hand, is located at Sonnemannstrasse 20, Frankfurt/Main, rather @ActionChris - just that you also find the right way. But vll. you think of this text, if you can be photographed with the artwork 😉 Nice that you incidentally a little more moderate here on Getquin appear - I mean as honest feedback.
And other than that? Nothing else... I was just surprised by the randomness of the post or picture of our crypto plepps that I spontaneously wanted to announce this anecdote of mine. Have a relaxing evening or day... and enjoy the life full of art.
And take part in the raffle on my profile. You can win a book and merch from Getquin. And that is also something like art. 👌
