Sculpture at Rotterdam’s Natural History Museum
This sculpture by French Vietnamese artist Huang Yong Ping consisted of a model of Schiphol Airport which was to include live insects and other animals. However, animal protection organisations did not agree to this use of live creatures and the model, representing global mobility, had to remain empty at the biennale. The artist decided to include the ‘insect rights’ discussion in printed form, showing the correspondence between the animal rights groups, himself and Manifesta 1.
