Spiegelarche by Der Grüne Salon e.V.

The Spiegelarche is a place of encounter in Roldisleben (Thuringia): two mirrored containers stacked on top of each other. Renowned artists created the space to offer visitors a new viewpoint on the surroundings and themselves. The Spiegelarche stands for openness, tolerance and curiosity.

“A great project of high artistic quality, a monument of freedom with a philosophical, experimental and existential claim. The Spiegelarche looks different every day, a great sign of our changability and an invitation to experience ourselves in the context of nature”, says the jury.
