January 25, 2024 - A day before the celebration of "Australia day" the statue of Captain Cook in St. Kilda, Australia, was sawn off at the ankles, with the words "The Colony Will Fall" painted on the statue's plinth.

Victor Noir's grave in Père - Lachaise cemetery by Patrick Magaud, 1984.

Noir is perhaps more famous for his death and grave than work.

He was a journalist who was shot dead; the grave consists of a full-sized bronze statue of the man laying down as if he was just shot.

The statue became a fertility symbol - the story says those who kiss the statue on the lips, leave a flower in Victor's hat and rub the genital area will find themselves with enhanced fertility, a great sex life or find a husband within one year. The lips and trousers' bulge on the grave are noticeably shiny from people kissing and rubbing them.
