Belgium 

• The Belgium Pavilion featured artist Berlinde De Bruyckere, and one of her sculptures. The exhibit is called "Cripple wood" for which the sculpture is also named. The art work being made from a variety of materials resembles the dying trunk and limbs of a hewn down tree. Patches of inky red dye seep out of cracks in its realistic bark, the dark room in which the behemoth lies give the place a somber feel and leaves you with an undeniable feeling of loss as if something great is no more.
