    Tips

    October 2, 2021

    Some works of art are more likely to meet with incomprehension among the general public, others are immediately taken to the heart. The figure of the storm-blown man with his useless umbrella on the Steinwarder promenade in Heiligenhafen brings a smile to the faces of residents and visitors to the city again and again and is a popular photo opportunity. The stylized and greatly simplified depiction of the larger than life man is reminiscent of slapstick-like comics or simple stick figures. The bent posture vividly captures the strange situation.

    Art blacksmith Heiko Voss originally created the rust-red steel figure for an exhibition in Schönberg, where it is on permanent loan to this day. Since people in Heiligenhafen were also enthusiastic about the work of art, a second version was created for the promenade, which could be purchased and installed with the help of generous donations.
