From 8th February to 17th March the Park Illumination is mounted at Grugapark in Essen. Cazador-del-sol presents the first illuminated installation in the middle of the Dahlia Arena. This time René Hildebrand’s sun-field is all about time.
René Hildebrand, Entwickler des Cazador-del-sol
Time is an integral part of our lives – sometimes it flies by quickly – sometimes it seems to crawl, but it always brings changes. Especially in difficult periods of your life we want to bring “a ray of sunshine” into your life, nourish the soul and bring new hope and energy. Therefore we would like to take the installation “time” as an opportunity to support a very special place in Grugapark the “temporary home” in the Hundertwasser House. The families of severely ill children, who are treated in the nearby university clinic, can live here for some time to take a rest from the stressful daily routine at the clinic. We would like to support this wonderful idea:
Therefore we donate 6.00 Euros to the Ronald McDonald House of the McDonald's Kinderhilfe Stiftung (McDonald’s Help for Children Foundation) for every Cazador-del-sol® sold from our special edition “time” – so that this place becomes a bright spot…

"Hunderte "Sonnenfänger", also geschliffene Plexiglasscheiben, bilden die Zeiger einer Uhr.
Ein schöner Effekt und ein Magnet für Fotografen."
