"550 kilos in weight, bright red and motor-driven: the door to the Lothar Fischer Museum in Neumarkt in the Upper Palatinate is a feature that can be recognized from a considerable distance when it is closed; when it is open it invites visitors in the porch area of the art gallery. The entrance looks like a great red square as a result of its dimensions, 3.7 metres high and 3 metres wide, with a control box next to it containing a flush bell, loudspeaker and letterbox. A power anchor holds the door at the upper end, the motor is concealed in the floor in the turning axis. The door was brought to the building site by crane, hence two internal threads for ring bolts on the top. The structure is made up of hollow aluminium sections covered with coloured aluminium sheeting. There are also colour accents in the same shade of red inside the museum. But anything directly associated with the works of art is as austere and reduced as possible, thus in its reticent way creating a calm atmosphere for the exhibits. "
