You know sculptures, you do not know that. The beautifully designed animal is in a good mood. (Original title: fountain with hare and flowers)
Prof. Heinrich Brummack designed this idiosyncratic, pleasing piece of sculpture, which adorns the corresponding fountain.
But not all of them get pleasure - because despite the reputation of the artist - Brummack's works are represented in international museums - many viewers simply dismiss the hare as kitsch. He really is not!
To think outside the box does not hurt:
jeffkoons.comdamienhirst.comWell, Westerkappeln can be proud of his rabbit! I think that's good!

"Fountain in the center [edit]The controversial "Brunnenhase"
In the year 2002, a search committee was occupied with the task of selecting a suitable well system for the town center. The citizens Westerkappelns remained outside. The commission decided to use the fountain with hare and flowers by Heinrich Brummack, who lives and works in Westerkappeln, and thus defied the suggestion "well with saucepan and owl". The plant consists of a cast-iron shell with a diameter of 2.40 meters and a centrally placed in it natural stone base with a turntable. On this turntable a bronze-gilt leaf-gilded hare and flowers made of aluminum are attached. The hydraulic hub lets the rabbits placed on it randomly change direction. In winter, when the well is out of order, the hare is trapped by a blue grid "so he can not run away" (Brummack). The fountain is controversial. According to opponents of this plant, the project was "garbage" and "thrown out money". In fact, the well has cost a five-figure amount (donation of Kreissparkasse to the cultural and Heimatverein Westerkappeln). Others expressed their protest by pouring washing powder into the well. "

Het gouden konijntje werd beroofd van zijn bloem, wat nog te zien is op de oudere foto's. (Tenzij hij of de bloem kan worden verplaatst)
Desalniettemin, zelfs als een deel van de bevolking hem niet mag, is hij een hele fijne jongen. Dankzij de info van Ida is er een draaiplateau.
