Olaf Nicolai’s Labyrinth has been a fixture in the GfZK Garden since the building opposite Johannapark first opened in 1998. It consists of industrially produced plastic brooms of the kind used by the Parisian city cleaning service.
Due to constant exposure to UV rays and the elements, its components are becoming brittle. Together with the artist, designers and material researchers, we are now exploring sustainable ways to restore the artwork. For this purpose, the Labyrinth will be taking a trip in September!
We will keep you updated on the restoration process and let you know when the Labyrinth is expected to return.
