Ist etwas, das man nicht mehr sehen kann, trotzdem noch da? Die Erkenntnis der Objektpermanenz ist eine wichtige Etappe der fr\u00fchkindlichen Entwicklung. Die Einsicht, dass ein Gegenstand auch dann noch existiert, wenn er sich au\u00dferhalb der eigenen Wahrnehmung befindet, erlangt der Mensch in der zweiten H\u00e4lfte des ersten Lebensjahres. Die beiden M\u00fcnchner K\u00fcnstler:innen Tim Bennett und Susanne Wagner fordern nun spielerisch unser aller Erkenntnisf\u00e4higkeit mit einem Kunstwerk am Bau heraus: Ihr \u201eMaiwurm\u201c f\u00fcr das Haus f\u00fcr Kinder an der Hermann-Weinhauser-Stra\u00dfe setzt dabei zugleich auf die Kraft der Imagination. Daf\u00fcr haben sie das bayerische Symbol des Maibaums gew\u00e4hlt und formal modifiziert.<\/p>\n
Auf dem an drei Seiten geschlossenen Vorplatz des Geb\u00e4udes ragt ein wei\u00df-blau gestreiftes Rohr aus pulverbeschichtetem Stahl f\u00fcnf Meter senkrecht in die H\u00f6he, schl\u00e4ngelt sich mit einer Biegung einige Meter waagrecht am Boden entlang und verschwindet vor dem Eingang wie ein Regenwurm scheinbar unter der Erde. Auf der Gartenseite des Hauses taucht das Rohr im Sandkasten wieder auf: Wiederum horizontal und mit einem Knick im rechten Winkel auf dem Boden verlaufend, richtet es sich am anderen Ende vertikal zu einem abstrahierten, aber erkennbaren Maibaum von 15 Metern H\u00f6he auf.<\/p>\n
Dieser \u201eMaiwurm\u201c bietet sich einerseits f\u00fcr Kinder und Eltern als Sitzgelegenheit und Balancierbalken an. F\u00fcr die Bewohner:innen des neuen Quartiers bildet er au\u00dferdem eine Art Landmarke und umfasst die Kindertagesst\u00e4tte dabei wie eine Klammer. Ob der Maiwurm sich wirklich unter dem Haus durch schl\u00e4ngelt? Da hilft nur eines: graben. So kann man das Freispiel der Kinder im Sand als t\u00e4gliche \u00dcbung in empirischer Forschung interpretieren.<\/p>\n","werk_artists":[{"ID":1294,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2022-06-28 16:30:27","post_date_gmt":"2022-06-28 14:30:27","post_content":"Tim Bennett\ngeboren 1973 in Rochdale (GB)\nlebt und arbeitet in M\u00fcnchen\nStudium an der AdbK M\u00fcnchen sowie Goldsmiths College, London","post_title":"Tim Bennett","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"bennett-tim","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2023-04-19 18:15:31","post_modified_gmt":"2023-04-19 16:15:31","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/artist\/bennett-tim\/","menu_order":71,"post_type":"artist","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":6754,"post_author":"10","post_date":"2024-04-29 13:00:19","post_date_gmt":"2024-04-29 11:00:19","post_content":"geboren 1977 in M\u00fcnchen, lebt und arbeitet in M\u00fcnchen.\r\n\r\nStudium an der Akademie der Bildenden K\u00fcnste M\u00fcnchen sowie an der Akademie der Bildenden K\u00fcnste Wien.\r\n\r\nwww.susannewagner.com","post_title":"Susanne Wagner","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"susanne-wagner","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-04-29 13:00:35","post_modified_gmt":"2024-04-29 11:00:35","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/?post_type=artist&p=6754","menu_order":27,"post_type":"artist","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"werk_technical_data":"","werk_technical_data_en":"","werk_visibility":false,"werk_txt_long_en":"
Is something that you can no longer see actually still there? Recognizing object permanence is an important stage in early childhood development. Humans develop the realization that an object still exists, even when it is beyond their sight, in the second half of their first year of life. The two Munich-based artists Tim Bennett and Susanne Wagner playfully challenge all of our cognitive abilities with a piece of architectural art: Their May Worm for the daycare center on Hermann Weinhauser Strasse also relies on the power of the imagination. For this, they have chosen and modified the form of the prototypical Bavarian symbol, the maypole.<\/p>\n
On the building\u2019s forecourt, which is closed in on three sides, a white-and-blue striped tube made of powdered steel rises vertically five meters into the air, then bends and wriggles horizontally along the ground before finally vanishing in front of the entrance, almost like an earthworm disappearing into the soil. On the garden side of the building, the tube reappears in the sandbox: again, it runs horizontally along the ground, making two right-angle bends, and then rises straight up, becoming an abstract, yet recognizable maypole fifteen meters high. This May Worm offers children and adults both a place to sit and a kind of balance beam for play. For the residents of the new quarter, it is also a landmark, enclosing the daycare center like a pair of parentheses.<\/p>\n
Does the May Worm really crawl underneath the building? Only one thing will help you find out: digging. That means the children\u2019s unstructured play in the sandbox can be interpreted as a daily exercise in empirical research.<\/p>\n","werk_sort_data_access":"auf Anfrage zug\u00e4nglich","werk_sort_data_year":"2017","werk_sort_data_category":"Skulptur \/ Plastik","werk_sort_data_district":"Berg am Laim","werk_collections":false,"werk_sort_data_artists":"Tim Bennett,Susanne Wagner","werk_txt_context":""},"featured_image_src_1280":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/quivid-muenchen-tim-bennett-susanne-wagner-maiwurm-kunst-am-bau-2017-01-1280x903.jpg","featured_image_src_768":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/quivid-muenchen-tim-bennett-susanne-wagner-maiwurm-kunst-am-bau-2017-01-768x542.jpg","artists":[{"name":"Tim Bennett","url":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/artist\/bennett-tim\/"},{"name":"Susanne Wagner","url":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/artist\/susanne-wagner\/"}],"tax_category":"Skulptur \/ Plastik","tax_access":"auf Anfrage zug\u00e4nglich","tax_district":"Berg am Laim","tax_year":2017,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2620","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2620"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2620\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6764,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2620\/revisions\/6764"}],"acf:attachment":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5287"}],"acf:post":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist\/6754"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist\/1294"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2621"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2620"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2620"},{"taxonomy":"district","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/district?post=2620"},{"taxonomy":"access","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/access?post=2620"},{"taxonomy":"accessibility","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/accessibility?post=2620"},{"taxonomy":"space","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/space?post=2620"},{"taxonomy":"year","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/year?post=2620"},{"taxonomy":"gender","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/quivid.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gender?post=2620"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
