Guided Story
Take a moment to really look at the bold lines and dynamic shape of this sculpture. Can you feel a touch of ancient mythology mixed with a modern vibe? Markus Lüpertz has crafted something truly unique here. Did you know that the artist often draws inspiration from classical music for his works? Just behind you, a few steps away, you'll find the St. Elisabeth Church. It's an interesting contrast: the traditional architecture there, and this modern Apollo here. This sculpture invites you to reflect on time, on how beauty and art continually reinvent themselves.
