Riesen-Picknicktisch
Riesen-Picknicktisch stands in Berlin-Mitte as a public sculpture by the artist Daan den Houter. You see a picnic table enlarged to monumental scale, positioned like oversized street furniture within central Berlin.
The familiar form changes how you read the surrounding public space. Its design invites encounters beyond looking, whether people climb onto it, gather around it or use it as a meeting point. Daan den Houter creates works that challenge perception, and this playful object asks you to reconsider an everyday setting.
A picnic table becomes a striking urban landmark, blending sculpture with the routines of city life.
