Goethe Installation at Frankfurt University
At Campus Westend of the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University Professor Ottmar Hörl’s Goethe installation took place.
Prof. Dr. Hörl as a conceptual artist could be convinced to design and produce a series of four hundred figures depicting the man who lent his name to our university. These monochrome sculptures in four colors, which take up the former colors of the university faculties welcomed visitors to the university.
„ Goethe is one of the most fascinating personalities from Frankfurt. He was cosmopolitan, curious, looking beyond his immediate surroundings and he developed an incredible range in many fields that can serve as inspiration for future generations.“
Prof. Ottmar Hörl
„I do not see cu ltue as an hierarchical concept but instead strive for as many people in a society as possible to be involved with culture .“
Prof. Ottmar Hölr
