Manfred Weitgasser 1990 The installation is the meadow, without daisies, sloping up to the terrace of the extension building, to the walls of an old two-story tavern, which already represents the border to a new property. Over the flat roof 12 m above, which towers over about half of the terrace, the artist braces the luminous body with thin steel cables on the terrace floor. The lawn is sloping as an elongated triangle 3.65 mx 6.89 mx 7.66 m, under it is 2600 liters of earth. The luminous body is above him, and at a certain height the thing seems to float. Not a grafted-on sculpture, but competition in the interplay between building and luminous body and a meadow that appears for reasons that cannot be found. A quiet room, a gathering of lights over a covered meadow.

The light pentagon was dismantled in 1996.
