    "CHECKED BY HINRICH ZÜRN
    The sculpture
    The sculpture is the element of the palisade
    artistically related to the impression of unrivaled
    wind obstacle, the threat and the
    To create captivity. One with palisades
    enclosed space, approx. 5 x 10 m large and 3 m high
    of individual palisades at different heights
    as if pierced by arrows and therefore apparently
    impassable. The arrangement of the posts allows one
    Traversing the sculpture and leading to a place
    on which many palisades with the tips against the
    Viewers are directed. The concentration leads to
    a threatening effect. Block diagonals
    Way and sight, the feeling of being trapped in
    Palisade room arises. "

      You might get a slightly oppressive feeling when you consider the historical background.
      A successful composition by the artist and worth a closer look!

        The "Verhack" is a sculpture on the Eppinger Linienweg: The construction of the Eppinger Lines began in 1695. The Eppinger Lines are an 82 km long defensive system from Neckargemünd to Pforzheim. In 1983, the lines were partially reconstructed in the Stromberg-Heuchelberg Nature Park between Eppingen and Mühlacker. Thematic works of art and installations can be found in many places.
