Small oil disaster @ Cacaofabriek
I visited the Cacaofabriek in Helmond yesterday. One day earlier the road right next to the cacaofabriek collapsed under the weight of a huge construction machine, that happened to pass by. The machine hit a water pipe which caused the basement of the Cacaofabriek to be flooded with 200.000 liters of water. In that basement a work was installed by artist Hans van der Ham, that was partly made out of many liters of crude oil. The result was an amazing miniature oil disaster!

Sam Durant
Sam Durant, ‘Bordeaux statue of liberty’, from the series ‘Defaced monuments’, an ongoing collection of statues, sculptures, memorials, markers and monuments that have been intentionally or unintentionally altered, damaged or destroyed as a political statement or during a political protest.
There are four replicas of the Statue of Liberty (given to the U.S. by the French in 1886) in France. This one, an 8 ft., bronze statue, was erected in 2000 in Bordeaux. The original replica had been erected in 1887 but was dismantled and melted for scrap metal by Nazis in WWII. A plaque honoring the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks was added to the second statue later. On the night of March 25, 2003, in what is believed to be an anti-war or perhaps anti-American statement, red paint was poured on the statue. It was lit with gasoline and the face was blackened by fire. The plaque commemorating the victims of September 11th was also cracked.
