Blickachsen 2017



Hard to believe but it has been two years since the last Blickachsen Exhibition in my home town Bad Homburg  ( Blickachsen 2015 ). And who would have thought that I would maintain this blog up till now and find something to write about each week? 



"Untitled (schräge Bank)" -  Markus Wilfling


"DN100 Stadtmöbel"

Bad Homburg's Kurpark is full of resting benches - it is a nice theme to work on as one can see from the works of Wilfling and Pitsch&Schau .... This huge bench is made from drainage pipe.



A large gherkin: "Der Gurk" - Erwin Wurm
.... the severely cut back yews on either side might but don't belong to the exhibition. 

 another large gherkin-like structure ... "Roter Keil" - Johann Feilacher


"Kreisgruppe" - Joannis Avramidis

"Kopf im Kopf" - Alfred Haberpointner


This is not a photoshop distortion but a very ingeniously crafted sculpture.

"Isabella" - Jaume Plensa




"Big Be-Hide" - Alicja Kwade


"Blue Hour" - Raul Walch

Why does this remind me of Bhutan? 




"7 Anrufungen" - Karl Prantl


"Pavillon de Vin" - Joana Vasconcelos

"Placements" - Manfred Wakolbinger



"Three Equal Volumes" - Ewerdt Hilgemann

These three rather cold stainless steel installations led to my most interesting organic monochrome abstract photographs.








On the opening day young ladies in historic costumes offered drinks from Bad Homburg's mineral springs.
