31.07.2014 - miraculous multiplication:

Besucher der Katharinenkirche legen zum VERTRAUEN Geld dazu

Visitors of St. Catherine's Church in Frankfurt added money to the word TRUST - 1C, 5C, 20C, 50c and 1 Euro pieces. The word TRUST (VERTRAUEN) was recreated inside St. Catherine's Church after the experiment in front of the church came to an end.

23.07.2014 - I am touched:

This afternoon I had a talk to the young people who brought a homeless to the money-sculpture at St. Catherine's Church Friday night around 3:00 clock and helped him packing the coins. He had previously asked them for some change or some cigarettes. The word TRUST (VERTRAUEN) at this time was long gone – not recognizable and not readable anymore - most cent pieces disappeared earlier. Also on prompting of a well-dressed gentlemen, they better should take the money themselves instead of giving it to the homeless, the young people didn‘t do so. By the way, this well-dressed gentlemen himself took money - he even wanted, that the homeless wraps him the money. The homeless gave thousand thanks to the young people and also told them, that he would share the money with his colleagues. I AM PROUD OF YOU GUYS! You did that very well!

18.07.2014 - positive Impressions:

People always added coins to the sculpture - until late into the night. Several pedestrians brought the word TRUST (VERTRAUEN) back in shape after a cyclist driven over it or other pedestrians walked by chance over it. Very interesting discussions and thoughts in the social networks and at the opening of the exhibition.
