  • Lying horizontal in a Budapest scrap yard are two Communist-era statues that were toppled along with the fall of the Hungarian Socialist state in March 1990. In the foreground is the statue of the once-hated Hungarian local Communist Ferenc Munnich who participated in the 1956 Hungarian revolution, then a member of the ‘Revolutionary Worker-Peasant Government’, the Workers’ Militia and then defence minister and earning himself the Order of Lenin in 1967. After Hungary’s transition to a democracy, he has been dumped horizontally on a wooden frame, sliced off its original plinth at the feet and painted red, awaiting its fate. In fact this statue is now located in the theme park called Szoborpark (Statue Park) in the south of the city where he shares a political tourist landscape of 42 pieces of art from the Communist era between 1945 and 1989.

  • Hidden beneath the cover is a bronze statue, by the sculptor Philip Jackson of Mahatma Gandhi, an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist, who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for Indias independence from British Rule on 15th June 2020 in Londons Parliament Square, United Kingdom. On its unveiling, commentators noted the irony of the statues placement near the statue of Sir Winston Churchill that also stands in Parliament Square. Churchill, who strongly opposed Indian independence, famously once called Gandhi a seditious Middle Temple lawyer, now posing as a fakir of a type well known in the East, striding half-naked up the steps of the Vice-regal palace. The Telegraph of Kolkata noted that the fact that Gandhi and Mandela now stand alongside a slew of white men in Parliament Square is proof of how much England itself has moved away from Winston Churchills views on racism and imperialism.  The boarded up statue in the background is Nelson Mandela. The statues were boarded up to protect them from attacks by far-right extremists.
