"Global Stone project" by Wolfgang Krater von Schwarzenfeld. This is his very individual but also universal project, which he has been working on over 30 yeas.
After his ship brokendown in the ocean, where he learned the boundary between life and death for 15 days long, he discovered a life new. This project is his contribution to mankind.

"On every continent I look for two stones with unique characteristics in terms of material, form, and history, and each weighing approximately 30 tons. One of the two stones remains in its country of origin, while the other "sister" stone goes on a journey to Berlin, Germany, to the Tiergarten near the Bradenburger Gate, Parliament and the Holocaust Memorial. In summary, my project consists of the handling of ten stones, five to be placed in the countries representing each continent and the other five stones to be placed in Berlin."

The pairs of stones from the continents represent the five steps towards Peace :
Europe/Awakening, Africa/Hope, Asia/Forgiveness, America/Love, Australia/Peace

大洋を横断中、船のマストが折れ15日間生と死の境界線をさまよって以来、W.K.フォン シュバルツエンフェルド氏がもう30年以上も地道に続けている「グローバル ストーン プロジェクト」。世界の5大陸からその大陸ながらの特徴のある石二対を探し、一つはその石の故郷に記念碑として置いてもらい、もう一対はベルリンのティアガルテンの一角に設置。ブランデンブルグ門から徒歩5分程のところにあります。
5つの石は「平和」に不可欠な5つのステップの象徴です。
ヨーロッパ/目覚め、アフリカ/希望、アジア/寛大、アメリカ/愛、オーストラリア/平和
完成は2年後の予定だそうです。
