KölnSkulptur #5 · 2009–2011

Reality Check

Curator: Dr. Renate Goldmann

With the exhibition KölnSkulptur #5, the Skulpturenpark Köln is showing numerous outdoor sculptures by national and international artists. A total of 41 works can be seen on the spacious grounds between the zoo and the Rhine, 17 of which are new positions refering to the new exhibition. In addition to a representative look at positions of contemporary outdoor sculpture, KölnSkulptur #5 – Reality Check enables visitors to confront the reality of the 21st century and thus opens up not only new personal perspectives, but also exciting discussion bases that stimulate exchange.
