Ein neuer erfolgreicher Tag, Contemporary sculpture at Kasinokreisel in Wuppertal, Germany.
The sculpture displays a young businessman performing a handstand while wearing a white shirt, black pants, and holding a briefcase on a concrete pedestal.
Belgian conceptual artist Guillaume Bijl created this sculpture in 2008, funded by Sparda-Bank West Foundation for Art, Culture and Social Affairs for 100,000 euros.
The artwork represents a critique of consumer society, depicting a banker in an unusual position near financial institutions during the 2007 financial crisis.
Located at the intersection of Herzogstrasse, Friedrich-Ebert-Strasse, and Kasinostrasse, the two-meter-tall sculpture stands on a 1.4-meter pedestal and weighs 220 kilograms.
The bronze tie and briefcase were repeatedly stolen, leading locals to temporarily attach real ties to the figure, earning it the nickname 'Tie Man'.
