The Grüne Mitte Neuallermöhe sees itself as something like a living room—the "parlor"—and a meeting place for the residents of the district. With his object "Living-Room," Egidius Knops plays with this analogy and the relationship between the private and the public in an artistically alienating way. Like an oversized sofa four meters wide, it invites you to sit
and play, but is made of boulders and fieldstones on a concrete core.

"Living Room" by Egidius Knops
Location: green center / diagonal.
Object/Production: Boulders and boulders, some of which were split, were anchored on a concrete core and formed into a sofa. The dimensions of the usable sofa are 4×1.5×0.85m (LxHxW).
Content: The general theme here is the relationship between the private and the public. An everyday object becomes a public living room and is therefore also perceived as alienated.
Person: Egidius Knops, born 1945 in Simpelveld NL. Art studies in Tilburg NL at the art academy. Resident in Berlin.
