>Art in the city 2 – #114

Here’s Matthias Rüppel from Mainz putting the finishing touches on the Ionic pillar which forms the central structure of his interpretation of “Europe at 50”

Some folks expressed an interest in seeing the completed works and they’re on display until the end of the month so I thought Id’ wander around the market yesterday, have a coffee from my new friends at Caffea Moguntia and go an look at the finished exhibits.

And photograph them.

They’re in the foyer of the State Theater so in I toddle, can’t find anything (as usual) and ask the lady in the ticket office.


“First floor” she says “but it’s closed.”

Me: “Closed? On a Saturday morning? With town full of people?”

She: “Exactly. They only open an hour before the theatre production starts. And there’s no production today, so your first chance is tomorrow afternoon. It’s so stupid. They reckon they haven’t got anyone to supervise visitors.”

This place does exasperate me at times…

But here’s the web site with the images anyway.

Not in English, of course….
