Judith Hopf, Untitled (Pointing Hand 3), 2017 @museum.de

Made of bricks, which are primarily used as building material in architecture, the sculptural form contradicts its industrial material. The finger of this hand sculpture points in comic-book aesthetic at an indeterminate target, apparently drawing attention, through its cheerful prompting, to its human and non-human environment in the park. In the context of current debating culture, in which complex issues are often simplified, the monumental hand can be read as a call to adopt a different perspective.
