On Tuesday, October 7, Danish artist Jens Galschiøt unveiled The Orange Plague, a 2.6-metre-tall sculpture of a nude Donald Trump seated on the shoulders of a frail smaller man, inside the European Parliament building in Strasbourg. The Trump figure is covered in 23-carat gold leaf, while the burdened figure beneath him is cast in bronze. The work carries dense symbolism. The Trump figure holds tiny scales of justice in one hand and a golf club in the other, and a globe the size of a golf ball rests at the feet of the smaller man. The plinth bears the title alongside a caption that reads: "I am sitting on the back of a man. He is sinking under my burden. I will do anything to help him. Except stepping down from his back." Galschiøt says the piece takes its cue from Hans Christian Andersen's The Emperor's New Clothes, the tale of a ruler fooled into believing he wears invisible finery. The sculpture anchors a three-day exhibition hosted by Per Clausen, a Danish member of the European Parliament, which Galschiøt describes as a comment on power, inequality and who absorbs the costs of authority. For Galschiøt, the work reflects what he views as the US president's threat to the environment and the rules-based order. Parliamentary rules bar displays deemed offensive or contrary to the union's values; the exhibition was approved through the standard member-sponsored process. Galschiøt also turned the unveiling into a mass participatory gesture, handing out roughly 20,000 miniature 3D-printed versions of the sculpture to visitors and parliament staff, and releasing the design files for free so anyone can print their own copy. Titled alternatively the "King of Injustice," the work has already circulated widely on social media.
