The sculpture „Meeting“

The sculpture „Meeting“ by the Chinese artist Wang Shugang, depicts eight lifesize squatting men, positioned in a circle on Schönleinsplatz Square near a busy crossroads in the middle of the old town. The work of art is made of bronze, varnished in red and goes back to an exhibition in the year 2013, CIRCLES, when it was first shown in Bamberg.

In 2016, thanks to the Oberfrankenstiftung and private donors, the work of art was acquired by the Friends of the International Artists' House Villa Concordia e.V. and returned to Bamberg permanently. It has grown into a very popular subject for photos as the artwork is open to walk through and sit besides the eight men, thus becoming part of the artists creation.
