The first thing you notice, when you come closer is a row of metal plates. Most people walk by without seeing the little red glove a few steps away under the tree. The plates tell several stories in German, English, French and Russian this glove could have been involved in, but they are not related to each other at all.
This installation by artist Ilya Kabakov is called "Denkmal für einen verlorenen Handschuh" (Monument for a Lost Glove). It is very close the Museum of Contemporary Art.
