This route connects two closely related cultural institutions in Nord Rhine Westphalia: the Stiftung K\u00fcnstlerdorf in Sch\u00f6ppingen and the Landesmusikakademie in Heek. Both are housed in historic buildings in smaller towns in M\u00fcnsterland and surrounded by public green spaces. The artworks found at each reflect the themes of the institutions themselves: the Landesmusikakademie garden features works of sound art, a number of which were created as part of Soundseeing, the M\u00fcnsterland-wide sound art festival. The Landesmusikakademie NRW is primarily situated within Landesburg Nienborg, which was built in 1198. In addition to the castle, you can also still visit some of the remaining gatehouses.<\/p>\n
Sch\u00f6ppingen can be reached in roughly 35 to 40 minutes on flat bike paths and dirt roads. On the K\u00fcnstlerdorf property, there are several sculptures by fellows of the institution. The K\u00fcnstlerdorf is a foundation that awards residencies. Visual artists live and work alongside writers and composers from all over the world in the foundation’s two early 19th century farmhouses. Other sculptures can be found in the surrounding area and on “Sch\u00f6ppinger Berg,” which is the tallest mountain in the district of Borken. With an elevation of 157.6 meters, it would surely prove challenging by bike.<\/p>\n

Individual surfaces, doors, and rails are extended disproportionately using steel sheets and struts, turning the vehicle\u2019s housings into a spatially expansive structure. In turn, automobile becomes a sculpture and loses its originally intended function. This sculpture is a visualization of the dynamics of a fast-moving object as it appears while driving. The vehicle body looks like it is dematerializing; it is transformed into an expression of wild, centrifugal motion.\r\nThe sculpture was created as part of the Schritt f\u00fcr Schritt project series for public art in Sch\u00f6ppingen.

Visitors can turn them on for a certain period of time using a switch in the opposite parking lot near the angel monument. The lettering, which is visible from afar, invites the viewer to see the surroundings in a different light: Not only does it evoke thoughts of angels and their material form, but it also creates new associations with them. Often seen as floating, airy beings, they are now also linked to notions of energy and its more sustainable usage.\r\n","post_title":"Er macht seine Engel zu Winden \/ He Makes His Angels as Winds","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"er-macht-seine-engel-zu-winden","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-09-21 17:08:59","post_modified_gmt":"2018-09-21 15:08:59","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/nrw-skulptur.net\/skulptur\/er-macht-seine-engel-zu-winden\/","menu_order":1623,"post_type":"sculpture","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":27609,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2017-06-06 23:39:54","post_date_gmt":"2017-06-06 21:39:54","post_content":"Sound Machines for a Tree\r\nA participatory project over 7 years\r\nSmall electronic sound modules are being hung on a tree in the Amtsgarten at the Landesmusikakademie NRW (Burg Nienborg) over a period of seven years. The sound modules are built on site each year in a one-day workshop under the guidance of children and young people and hung as a group activity. The sound modules remain in the tree for one year before being replaced with new models. \r\nThe electronic sound modules are simple machines, constructed out of electronic components, speakers, and small motors. Some of the machines produce very soft electronic sounds, reminiscent of the sounds of forests and meadows (insects and birdsong). Using motors, others generate soft percussive sounds (quiet rattling and rustling). The sound machines operate completely autonomously, i.e., they are powered with solar cells; as such, the sounds are dependent on the location-specific lighting conditions.\r\n\t\r\nReference: www.soundseeing.net\r\n\r\n","post_title":"Klangbaum \/ Sound Tree","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"klangbaum","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-10-06 18:33:47","post_modified_gmt":"2018-10-06 16:33:47","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/nrw-skulptur.net\/skulptur\/klangbaum\/","menu_order":558,"post_type":"sculpture","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":28061,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2017-06-06 23:39:45","post_date_gmt":"2017-06-06 21:39:45","post_content":"Pastoral<\/em> consists of an organ pipe mounted on a roughly 4-meter-high stand.
