Heike Mutter and Ulrich Genth designed an ambulatory platform that has taken on the swooping form of a rollercoaster.

“The visitor climbs on foot via differently steep steps the roller-coaster-sculpture. So the sculpture subtly and ironically plays with the dialectic of promise and disappointment, mobility and standstill.” 

Still, there is something fantastic about the unlikely path this set of stairs takes. The looping tubular steel may not be animated by cars of screaming folks, but instead full of people walking around, taking photos and marveling at a curious roadside attraction– bending whatever disappointment you had until it turns back toward excitement, making a nice loop.
