Bürgerstiftung Gütersloh – Benefactors' Tower
Description
Bürgerstiftung Gütersloh – Benefactors' Tower
Twenty years after its inception Gűtersloh’s citizen foundation celebrated its donors with an unusual gesture – the benefactorsÆ tower.
Not for the burghers of this Westphalian town, the traditional plaque with the sponsors’ names neatly chiseled into stone – a memorial that diminishes with every new inscription.
Instead, individually crafted wooden elements with the benefactors’ names are being stacked to form a layered tower that grows with every new donation.
