Goethes
garden house
The
sedentarization of the people and developing agriculture are influenced
by the conversion of
trees
into fertile soil. Dwellings made of wood are a possible basis of symbiotic
life of people in nature.
Widely
used are the wooden houses in the garden culture, where they represent
part of individual
planting
and cultivation activities. A garden shed made of wood represents not only
as sculpture the
creative
power and transforming energy of man in nature.
Four
small wooden garden sheds are built on a grassy area so, that their entrances
mark
a
small square "yard" (about 2 x 2 m). Each two houses face each other, all
four together form
a
cross in plan. The houses are placed together so closely that only a narrow
gap results between
two
adjacent. These four gaps allow insights into the "courtyard". The roofs
are not covered,
the
interiors are bright, the doors are open, a red cross in the "courtyard"
is to be seen.
On
the outer walls of the houses you can get information about this genetic
experiment.
In
the tranquil Neropark happens at this point monstrous, the modern Sorcerer's
apprentice has installed
a
kind of his witch´s kitchen.
On
the outer walls, visitors have the opportunity to leave comments.
The
boards, which form and protect a dangerous inner world, become information
areas, to places of
observation,
statements, exchange and dialogue, as it also brings the passion for gardening.
Thereby
results
a dense mental weave, the walls gradually overgrown with graphic expressions.
Goethe,
who had probably the most famous today "garden house" appears here as the
antithesis to the
modern
physical manipulation. He praised his time to nature, less with gardening
than by working in the
gardens
of poetry and lust.
