Manfred Kielnhofer’s The Guardians of Time Installation Is Currently Occupying Documenta In Kassel

Manfred Kielnhofer‘s ‘The Guardians of Time’ are an illegal installation currently on show at Documenta 13 in Kassel, Germany. The sculpture was installed on Friedrichsplatz in the ‘Occupy Kassel’ camp after curators rejected the artists wish to have it included in the exhibition – which includes over 300 exhibitions by artists from all over the World. The Guardians will be on site until the end of the art festival which concludes on 16th September 2012 and will spend their time travelling around the vast Documenta area, popping up at the numerous venues spread across the city.

Here’s what the artist had to say about the work:

In the past, the the Guardians of Time, took care of the people, now I think there are already too many people. He would prefer to take care of the world that is destroyed more frequently by men
