Hiking

The four signal blue men, who stand as if cloned at a height of two and a half meters above the heads of passers-by, are the epitome of secrecy. At the inauguration in May 2021, cultural representative Anselm Grupp showed a few ways of getting them to speak anyway. The outward correctness, the fake smile of these men, their apparent indifference, express a dark comedy, a social criticism that ultimately calls on the viewer to "be careful" - the title of Guido Messer's artwork. The four blue men on their beam are undoubtedly intended to invite reflection.

Hiking

Almost inconspicuous, but very nicely done.
Otherwise the whole place has become very good with a playground etc. It's a shame that there is no longer a restaurant/coffee shop in the corner
