Description: Jonathan Borofsky's Hammering Man is a 22-meter tall sculpture located in front of the iconic Trade Fair Tower in Frankfurt. This installation symbolizes the shift from industrial to service-based economy, highlighting the growing importance of the service sector. The man with the hammer appears rather humble next to the towering Trade Fair Tower. A compelling juxtaposition of two worlds that sparks contemplation.
