June 3 to July 12, 2020 | Frommannscher Garten | Fürstengraben 18, 07743 Jena | Mon - Fri: 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. The ninth Frommann's Sculpture Garden shows works by the sculptor Dana Meyer: sculptures of haunting physicality are presented on Frommann's estate. The artist creates her works in the medium of steel. She forms material finds in the forge and joins them together by welding; piece by piece, animal or human figures develop from a steel patchwork. When assembling, the artist is intuitively guided by the material. The gaps between the segments allow insight into and through the objects. The resulting permeability and the impression of fragility contrast with the solid material. opening hours June 3 - July 12 Frommannscher Garten: Fürstengraben 18, 07743 Jena Mon - Fri: 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. (free entry) The FrommannscheSkulpturenGarten is a cooperation project that has been taking place every year in early summer since 2012 between the Chair for Art History at the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, the Jena Art Association and the Kunsthof Jena e.V.
