        in the museum, the small edition in table format is on display alongside other sculptures: in the Forms section. Very understandably related to each other

              The sculpture "Halberdier" by Alexander Calder dates from 1972 and originally stood on the Opera Square. After public protests, it was moved to its current location.

                  A nice place to walk or cycle around the Maschsee in nice weather.

                      The sculpture "Another Twister" stands directly in front of the entrance to the Sprengel Museum.

                      Until 2015, Alice Aycock's sculptures adorned Park Avenue in New York. Now a so-called "Another Twister" is also in Hanover. The large aluminum sculpture in front of the main entrance to the Sprengel Museum rises a full six meters into the air.

                      Alice Aycock (born November 20, 1946) is an American. She has created many large-scale metal sculptures all over the world. Aycock's drawings and sculptures of architectural and mechanical fantasies combine logic, imagination, magical thinking and science.

                        Alexander Calder: Halberdier (Guadeloupe).
                        The steel sculpture is eight meters high, measures about six by seven meters in its base area and weighs six tons. The red-painted outdoor sculpture, unique in Germany, was made in Tours, France and donated to the city by patron Bernhard Sprengel.
                        We had already seen the model of Calder's "Hellebardier" in the Sprengel Museum, and now the figure stands 8 meters high, bright red and wonderful in front of me.

                                The town hall is worth a visit, especially the inclined elevator and the view of the Hanover region is a highlight.
