Gregor Gaida: Polygonal horse II
The Polish artist adds his cast aluminum sculpture to the village museum's horse cart. The horse depiction has 10 legs but no head - an ambivalent situation between strength and helplessness.
The white-patinated bronze sculpture symbolizes the importance of paper as a material for Hainichen and Europe. While the columnar structure is reminiscent of stacked sheets of paper, it pays tribute to the enlightenment culture of reading as the driving force of civic life.
