The comic fountain (actually The East is lit, location) was created in 2000 by Michael Fischer-Art from stainless steel and painted figures from glass fiber reinforced plastic (GRP). The fountain was designed with eight sculptures: 1st clock figure 5.20m, 2nd hand 1m, 3rd sun 1.95m, 4th moon 1.95m, 5th hand 1m, 6th hand 1st m, 7th figure 2.20 m, 8th figure 2.40 m. The figure in the upper pool, towering at 5.20 meters, has an integrated analog clock on the right and left as stylized eyes, which is illuminated at night. The pool depth is 50 cm, the water depth is 25 cm. Feasibility, water pressure and consumption, pipe and nozzle sizes and the total costs of the water technology project were checked and calculated by graduate engineer Chris Begall from the company Pumpen-Zilius, Berlin. After the demolition of the Great Fountain (“Panzersperre”), the Brunnenplatz was to be designed with a fountain again. It should attract viewers, irritate them in a positive way and enliven the overly functional space. The theme of the fountain should be elementary principles: sun and moon, heaven and earth, masculinity and femininity and the all-connecting dimension of time. They are embodied by figures that move on and in the water, are brightly colored and illuminated by halogen chandeliers that are sunk at ground level.
