Marc Quinn vervangt beeld van slavenhandelaar door BLM activist
Perfecte coup in Bristol: Marc Quinn vervangt beeld van slavenhandelaar door BLM activist.
The statue of slave trader Edward Colston was replaced in Bristol on Wednesday morning – with a sculpture of one of the protesters whose anger brought him down.
The figure of Jen Reid, who was photographed standing on the plinth with her fist raised after the 17th century merchant was toppled by Black Lives Matter demonstrators last month, was erected at dawn by a team directed by the artist Marc Quinn.
