On show from 22 April: "The first step is always the hardest", at Zeppelin Museum Friedrichshafen
The Zeppelin Museum invited Ottmar Hörl to develop a new temporary installation featuring 300 serial sculptures in the run-up to an exhibition entitled "Cult! Legends, Stars and Icons". Hörl's sculpture harks back to the motif of the boy holding an LZ3, depicted on the Zeppelin fountain (1909). The only monument to Count Zeppelin erected and inaugurated during his lifetime, the figure on the fountain symbolises the global success of Friedrichshafen's manufacturing business based on the development of its airship industry.

Sculptural project "You Shouldn't Kill the Hen that Lays the Golden Eggs" at the Bank of Baden-Württemberg in Stuttgart, 2007
New ideas, inventions, or nonconforming thoughts always tend to generate fears of change, even if they eventually contribute to improving the present situation in a second step. The title of this installation alludes to the phenomenon that metaphorical hens that could lay golden eggs for the whole system, are, unfortunately, sometimes killed right away. Read more about the project which is based on Jean de La Fontaine's animal fable.
