Ulrike Enders | Two people in the rain

The two sculptures by Ulrike Enders (born in 1944 in Oberstdorf) were installed through a private initiative by local businesspeople. Located in the pedestrian zone, they are literally at eye level, offering visitors the opportunity to move freely between them and position themselves without any barriers. The work invites viewers to pause; the familiarity of its design and function creates an anchor point amid the bustling activity of the city center. Meanwhile, the sullen expressions on the figures’ faces reflect the viewers’ own emotional states and, through exaggeration, serve to break through them. Other works in Hanover (selection): “Three Chairs” at Galerie Luise; “Lindener Butjer” on Minister-Stüwe-Straße. » Location: Georgstraße/Große Packhofstraße
