Question Does an installment which is scheduled to be dismantled after a certain period of time (here: 2020, as far as I understand from the wiki article), qualify for the permamence criterion of FoP-Germany? --A.Savin 13:49, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- @A.Savin: As far as I understand the article, there is a Emscherkunst exhibition every year until 2020. Some of the works will be dismantled, some will stay. This seems to be a permanent installment, see emscherkunst.de: „Der "Zauberlehrling" gehört zu den permanenten Arbeiten der EMSCHERKUNST.2013 und ist auch nach Ausstellungsende jederzeit in Oberhausen nahe Haus Ripshorst frei zugänglich.“ Therefore there should be no problem regarding the freedom of panorama. ireas (talk) 14:03, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) A.Savin, intersting question. I am not a lawyer - but for such a long period one can say that the installation is permantely in the public space and thus qualifies for FoP. There was a judgement in Germany regarding the covering of the Reichstag (Christo covered the German Reichstag for a few weeks) which said that photographs of Christo's installation does not fall under FoP. The period here is MUCH longer thus I do not think we have problems here (BTW: Is it an FPC concern??). As you can read on this official homepage of EMSCHERKUNST the exhibition is administrated until 2020 but I find no indication that the Zauberlehrling is destroyed afterwards. --Tuxyso (talk) 14:13, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- If the scultpures are dismantled when done and not re-installed elsewhere they qualify as permananet much in the same way as it would be for ephemeral art like Ice Sculptures.
- Support despite some distortion at the sculpture :P I think backlighting is very good idea here to show the shape. --Kadellar (talk) 14:30, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

Comment Excatly that was my idea with this backlight photo. I also made some other daylight shots - but the shape of the sculpture is much better accentuated on the photo I've nominated here. --Tuxyso (talk) 14:34, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

- Support In spite of some slight sharpening white lines along the steel, maybe. Anyway, all is excellent here (IMO): the subject, the backlight, the composition. Different and funny, congratulations ! I like it very much ! --Jebulon (talk) 15:45, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
