Photos: A life-size naked statue of Donald Trump appears in Manhattan, New York and he has no balls
A
life-size, flesh-coloured statue of a completely naked Republican
presidential nominee Donald Trump popped up at Union Square in downtown
Manhattan but has since been removed by New York authorities.
The statue is the work of a group of artists
known as Indecline, which, by placing the figure of the real estate mogul
in the middle of a heavily crowded area were aiming to protest the
attitudes and statements of the Republican candidate, EFE news reported.
The paunchy Trump stood glued to the square for about two hours
before personnel from the city's Parks Department removed it, with the
department saying in a communique that it is illegal to display artwork
in public without the proper permits.
However, before it was removed, passersby, tourists, were able to take pictures of - and with the sculpture.
The group carried out similar protests against Trump in Seattle, Cleveland, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
"Unlike the statues, it's our hope that Donald
Trump, our modern day Emperor of Fascism and Bigotry is never installed
in the most powerful political and military position in the world.
These fleeting installations represent this fleeting nightmare, and in
the fall, it is our wish to look back and laugh at Donald Trump's failed
and delusional quest to obtain the presidency," Indecline said in a
statement.
