KILIAN RÜTHEMANN : Acht Säulen für den Winter
Inspired by the architecture of classical antiquity, Rüthemann’s sculpture brings the Mediterranean to Gstaad. The palms, which represent the desire to bring the warmth of the southern climate into the colder north, are arranged as columns. Like those of a partially ruined temple they stand erect but devoid of function, serial monuments to a future that never could be.
