Throw-in to the game (2007)
Theaterplatz, Chur
Bronze on stone base, Robert Indermaur
The sculpture by Robert Indermaur was unveiled as a conclusion of the 75th anniversary of Procap Grischun together with the canton of Graubünden and the city of Chur in June 2007. Procap Grischun fights against discrimination of people with disabilities. They should enable people to participate in the game, in a figurative sense for life. Robert Indermaur named his work "Einwurf zum Spiel". The bronze sculpture shows a man in a wheelchair, who lifts a huge ball into the air. The ball, here as a bronze ball, is symbolic of the game. He wants to show that every person, even with the most diverse mental or physical limitations, can play successfully. "Life as a game" - even the person in the wheelchair can participate.
