Zinneke Pis bronze statue (Tom Frantzen) of dog urinating, on corner of Rue du Vieux Marche aux Grains. Brussels, Belgium. According to local jargon, this word was used to denote stray dogs wandering around town without owner, but now also names the expression of artistic creation of European citizens, proud to be part of a mix of cultures and roots, at a time when increasing racial tensions arise and where politicians promote fear and hatred to divide citizens. During the month of May, and every two years, the Zinneke Parade praises cultural diversity. This bronze statue life-size bastard dog pee in the corner making just symbolizes all these concepts.
