Stack, PURPLE PATH, Aue-Bad Schlema/ Chemnitz, Germany, 2025
Bronze
In September 2022, the sculpture Stack by artist Tony Cragg was inaugurated on the PURPLE PATH in Aue-Bad Schlema/ Chemnitz, Germany. The PURPLE PATH is one of the flagship projects of the European Capital of Culture Chemnitz 2025 and particularly involves the cultural region.
The almost four-metre-high bronze sculpture Stack's shape is reminiscent of the depiction of thrown-up earth on the central panel of the Annaberg mountain altar. The sculpture is located in the Bad Schlema spa park, which was built over a landscape completely devastated and destroyed by the Soviet Union's uranium mining operations of the Wismut SDAG.
