    Plastic “Integration”, 1975/76, steel
    Sculptor: Hans-Dieter Bohnet, Stuttgart, born in 1926, studied architecture and sculpture, worked freelance since 1950, died in 2006


    Cut metal ball with a diameter of four meters and a weight of four tons, diagonal disc segments with rhythmic recesses of equal width.

    The sculpture was originally intended as an award-winning competition result for the forecourt of the Chancellery in 1976, integrated into a landscaping design by the landscape architect Hans Luz (1926-2016). When the area in front was redesigned in 1979 with the sculpture “Large Two Forms” by Henry Moore in the center at the request of the then Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, the ball was first moved to the grounds of the Federal Horticultural Show in Stuttgart and returned to Bonn in 1986, where it was installed was permanently installed on the banks of the Rhine below the parliamentary high-rise.
