    Tips

    June 18, 2017

    Bogomir Ecker has chosen the so-called "Herner Meer" (near the city port of Recklinghausen) for his extraordinary installation. At the end of a pier, which lies like a peninsula between the Rhine-Herne Canal and the marina, a sculpture more than twenty meters high is in the water - as if the rise of the water level or a sinking of the earth's surface had sunk this work! Almost a matter of course is a street lamp in the water, which illuminates this sculpture like a bedside lamp at nightfall. In many of his sculptures the sculptor Bogomir Ecker works with abstraction. The individual parts of the sculpture seem to be casts of already existing objects and forms of everyday life. As a whole complex, however, they are unrecognizable. As if stacked in a childish puzzle, challenging the gravity, the sculpture threatens to collapse at the next gust of wind.

    The operating routes on the canal on both sides of the Herne Meer are great to ride on MTB and trekking bikes. Prima recreation and good section for cycling and hiking tours.
