Stephen Craig’s pavilion, which he calls ‘Wishing Well’, met two demands voiced by Messestadt Riem inhabitants – for more colour and for a further permanent work of art in their urban environment. The works of this Irish artist inhabit an intermediary world between architecture and sculpture. His open pavilion is set up in a green area on Willy-Brandt-Allee with some seats. Brightly coloured and with a number of mobile elements, its effect should be lively and entertaining. In this way the artist hopes to provide residents with a permanent place to meet and relax in, a place that will encourage them to articulate their wishes.
