The artist Achim Kiel created for the Volksbank Braunschweig the artwork "The Crayons". The crayons were meters of steel pipe, diameter about 800 mm, with a total length of 22 meter and an individual weight of 3 tons, as specified by the artist, having calculated the structural engineer ready-made surface treatments including- prepared to act.
The pins form a V from every angle, even from above - the hallmark of the bank from which they stand.
