    Also located directly at the Emscher Auen farm is this work of art that
    Massimo Bartolini developed for Emscherkunst 2016. A bright white square area with an edge length of 10.5 x 10.5 meters, which is surrounded by a small white wall. A circular opening with a diameter of almost eight meters is set into the concrete square, which reveals a water surface. Since the four-meter-deep water basin below is coated in black, a black circle appears on a white square when viewed from above.
    There is probably a fear that someone will drown in it, because a grate just below the water surface shines through.
