Produktbeschreibung
The Kunstmuseum in Stuttgart occupies the explosive site in the centre of Stuttgart known as the »Kleiner Schloßplatz« since the 1960s. This square opposite the Neues Schloß became synonymous with post-war planning errors. Transport planners had cut it to bits with their underground tubes before it was covered over with fashionable structures in the style of their time. The irreconcilable arguments alone that subsequently flared up about the future of the Kleiner Schloßplatz made it the most important location for the Stuttgart architecture debate in recent decades. Over thirty years passed, and several competitions were needed - in the course of which an absurd Postmodern and then a technocratic proposal triumphed -, before a convincing solution was found by the architects Rainer Hascher and Sebastian Jehle, who work in Berlin but come from Stuttgart. They had already created a stir with a project for EXPO 2000 in Hanover, in which a large »office landscape« as not just euphemistically promoted as such, but - protected by a monumental glass wave - was actually realized as a roofed park.
