Danish happening and performance artist Uwe Max Jensen walks naked with a bucket
on his head in front of the statue of The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen, Denmark
during a performance to mark the 50th anniversary of the beheading
of The Little Mermaid.
The small bronze skinned sculpture of Hans Christian Andersen's fairytale
which sits on a rock in the Copenhagen harbour in Churchill Park
has been several time vandalized and each time restored.
Fifty years after its first beheading on April 25, 1964
the statue is still a Danish icon.
