Guided Story

Imagine you're on a journey through time and space as you stand before the 'Unfolded Cubes'. To your right, you'll spot the Hardtberg-Gymnasium, a place of learning, but out here, it's your imagination getting an education. Leo Müllenholz, the artist, wanted to remind us that mathematics is not just numbers and formulas, but also art and history. Take a closer look at the cubes – they seem to unfold and come together again, a metaphor for the endless cycle of creativity. Behind you is the Hardtberghalle, where athletes shape their bodies, while Müllenholz shapes thoughts and ideas here. Let your gaze wander over the metal surfaces and feel the sun casting patterns of light and shadow. Can you hear the soft melody of geometry in the air?
