Warum? = Why?
The ultimate solution to the eternal question: A straight Banana -- Explanation:
During my childhood, I often heard my mother (a genuine Yekke = German Jew, immigrating to Palestine, then a British mandate) sing: "Why, oh why, is the banana crooked?", the answer being: "Had it been straight, it would be a banana no more".
So here we face a straight forward solution; no?

The city of Z​űrich has honoured me with a commission of an outdoor sculpture to stand on the Rosengarten Plaza, overlooking one of Switzerland's most driven roads.
Tian Lutz, the curator of this adventure, generously assisted me and hung the piece in its venue. None of us has foreseen the following happenings.

The bright yellow banana hardly lasted 24 hours in its original place. On Saturday night, June 27, 2015 it was severely damaged -- the pictures tell the story.
