PHOENIX, risen from the ashes of his former life
-renewal, yet conservation of the ancient


The figure is determined by two main lines
The connective horizontal
& the automonous vertical
The wings of Pylon remain earthbound,
but try to get loose.
The urge to fly is the PHOENIX' destiny.

In 1989 a competition was offered by Löbbecke, Bankers, Berlin
concerning a connecting bridge/ sculpture between the historical
monumentVilla Ilse & the bank's newly constructed glass
building at Fasanenstraße 76/ 77.
Mona Fux won the competition, beating 10 other sculptors
and architects,with her sketch of a stylized bird.
The bridge/ sculpture is named Phoenix,
standing for the merge of the ancient & the contemporary.
The bridge has a length of 13 m and a height of 20 m.
