wollt ihr Freiheit (do you want freedom)

Wollt ihr Freiheit (Do You Want Freedom) is the title of the multi-part temporary installation by the German-Syrian artist Manaf Halbouni that creates a link between the Museum ERLAUF ERINNERT and its surroundings. At the center of the installation are two sculptures cast in concrete and a wall relief. One sculpture spells the Arabic word for "Oppression," while the relief poses the question "Do you want freedom." The artist is thereby referring to the demonstrations at the beginning of the civil war in Syria, when the police asked demonstrators this rhetorical question while beating them.
