[GER] Die großformatige Skulptur trägt den Namen "Four Arcs of 235,5°". Der Titel beschreibt nichts weiter als das Sichtbare: vier Bögen bzw. Kreissegmente, die jeweils 235,5° eines vollständigen Kreises abdecken. Doch im Zusammenspiel der Segmente entsteht der Anschein einer unruheartigen Bewegung der tonnenschweren Elemente. Gefertigt ist die Skulptur aus Stahl. Geschaffen wurde sie 1999 von dem französischen Bildhauer Bernar Venet (*1941). Sie befindet sich im Skulpturenpark in Köln (siehe WMVVP4).

[ENG] The large sculpture is called "Four Arcs of 235,5°". The title describes nothing but the visible: four arcs or circle segments, each covering 235.5 ° of a complete circle. But in the interplay of the segments, the appearance of a disorderly movement of the tons of heavy elements arises. The sculpture is made of steel. It was created in 1999 by the French sculptor Bernar Venet (*1941). The sculpture was placed in the "Park of Sculptures" in Cologne (see WMVVP4).
