Abstract
The garden gnomes we know today first appeared in the 1870s in Germany and originally portrayed the figure of the hard-working miner with pickaxe and wheelbarrow. The actual figurine is however a useless ornament. In this performance a garden gnome celebrates his actual, ornamental self and calls for universal uselessness.
