Art in Public Places - Today’s Artwork: "Charles Hindenlang - Ohne Titel"

Published: March 24, 2026  ·  Period: 2026-03-24

The mural by Charles Hindenlang on the school facade in Basel transforms a simple clock into a cosmic journey. A horse gallops through a starry night, carrying not a rider but a large clock face, suggesting time itself is in motion. This imagery poetically connects the concrete passage of hours with the vastness of the universe, implying that time, like the horse's journey, moves relentlessly toward the dawn. Placed on a school, the work quietly reminds students that their education is part of this greater, ongoing progression through days and years.
