About me
Hey, this is Cornelius Schiffmann, currently aged 26! I'm a student at the university of Freiburg, my majors are English (obviously) and History of Art. Beforehand, I've been studying Graphic Design for 4 years (my prefered topics are photography, illustration and webdesign), so everything that has to do with the internet, social projects like wikipedia (“web 2.0.” in general) and creating content is very interesting to me.

Currently, I'm in a course called "Translating Wiki" where we work together with an university in Aberdeen on translating articles in english language/german language.

Beside my university life, my interests are the internet, graphic novels, reading magazines, illustration, photography, cats & videogames.

The „Skulpturenboulevard“ (en. „boulevard of sculptures) was a central component of the Initiative Deutschland – Land der Ideen (en. “initiative Germany – land of ideas”). As a joint initiative for image and location by the German Federal Government and the German economy - represented by the Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie (BDI) (en. Federal association of German industry) - under the patronage of Federal President Horst Köhler, it was to convey a positive image of Germany domestically and in foreign countries.

The corporate design of the campaign as well as the design of the sculptures was conceived and realized by Berlin design agency Scholz & Friends Identify. The agency was internationally awarded for this campaign several times – for example with the sought after EVA Award 2006. The sculptures were set up at central places within the Berlin city centre like the Bebelplatz or the Gendarmenmarkt. For the revelations small celebrations took place during which politicians, members of the initiative or representatives of the involved companies delivered opening speeches. The first revelation took place on March 10th 2006 in Spreebogenpark with the sculpture “Der moderne Fußballschuh” (engl. The modern soccer boot), the conclusive revelation was the delivery of the sculpture “Relativitätstheory” (en. theory of relativity) on May 19th 2006 in Lustgarten. One of the sculptures, “Das Automobil” (en. the car), went on a journey to Munich later on – the application or valorization of the other remaining artworks is still unclear.

The total costs of the planning right up to the realization amounted to among 300.000 and 350.000 euro for every single sculpture. The manufacture of all sculptures was accomplished with the modern synthetic material Neopor® and their lamination was completed with gleaming white special lacquer. It took roughly two months for every sculpture to be produced; the final assembly on the public spaces took up to three days for being finished.

On every art object found on the hiking trail across the German landscape of research and cultural history, information boards gave a detailed explanation about their respective symbolism in German and English language.

Background and general information

The "Skulpturenboulevard“ (en. "boulevard of sculptures) was a central component of the Initiative Deutschland – Land der Ideen (en. “initiative Germany – land of ideas”). As a joint initiative for Germany's image and location by the German Federal Government and the German economy - represented by the Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie (BDI) (en. Federal association of German industry) - under the patronage of Federal President Horst Köhler, its goal was to convey a positive image of Germany domestically and in foreign countries.

The corporate design of the campaign as well as the design of the sculptures was conceived and realized by Berlin design agency Scholz & Friends Identify. The agency was awarded internationally for this campaign several times – for example with the sought-after EVA Award 2006. The sculptures were set up at central places in Berlin city centre like the Bebelplatz or the Gendarmenmarkt. For the unveilings small celebrations took place during which politicians, members of the initiative or representatives of the companies involved delivered speeches. The first unveiling took place on March 10th, 2006 in Spreebogenpark with the sculpture “Der moderne Fußballschuh” (engl. The modern soccer boot), the final unveiling was the presentation of the sculpture “Relativitätstheory” (en. theory of relativity) on May 19th, 2006 in Lustgarten. One of the sculptures, “Das Automobil” (en. the car), went on a journey to Munich later on – the usage or utilisation of the remaining artworks is still unclear.

The total costs of the planning right up to the realization amounted to 300,000 and 350,000 euro for each sculpture. The manufacture of all sculptures was achieved with the modern synthetic material Neopor® and their lamination was completed with gleaming white special lacquer.

One of the centers of revolution relating to the Vormärz (lit. Pre-march) was Frankfurt. The publicist Ludwig Berne was born 1786 in the Judengasse. With his satiric writings, he became a prominent character of Junges Deutschland (lit. Young Germany). The Bundestag and the city's authorities, who were fearing for their reputation, tried to ban the political organizations and prevent the distribution of liberal writings. Nevertheless, at the latest after the July Revolution in 1830, the oppositional circles of the city were full with the spirit of revolution. The step following the idealistic ambition to the determining action however was a complete failure. […] There still was an aftermath of the otherwise fruitless event for Frankfurt's high society. A garrison of 2500 Austrian and Prussian soldiers challenged the city's sovereignty and the baronial diplomats of the Bundestag dispraised the Free City as a liberal location ever since. In the beginning of March 1848, the spirit of revolution passed over from France to Germany. In Frankfurt, as everywhere, the demand for freedom of press and assembly, constitutional equality of treatment for all citizen, amnesty for people detained for political crimes and general armament of the common folk was raised. On March 3rd, the Senate granted all the demands except for the emancipation of the Jews. The reform unions of the Montagskränzchen also demanded a reformed constitution for Frankfurt. A constituent assembly elected by citizens was to work out a new constitution as a replacement for the Konstitutionsergänzungsakte (the name of Frankfurt's constitution 1816 to 1866).

On March 9th, the black-red-golden flag waved over the Bundespalais (lit. Federal Palace). On March 31th, the Pre-Parliament (also called Frankfurt Parliament) assembled in the hastily reconstructed Paulskirche. Walls and windows of the church were decorated with black-red-golden flags and the recess was covered with a blanket. The pipe organ was concealed with with a broad curtain which showed a fresco by Phillip Veit. It showed Germania with a flag and a sword, who was to both her left and right side enclosed with a laurel wreath accompanied by verses of the fatherland. The altar was replaced by the President's table.
