What all sources covered
- More than 800 pounds of peanut butter have been spread over the floor of a museum in Rotterdam to honor the late Dutch artist Wim T. Schippers.
- The installation, titled "Pindakaasvloer" ("Peanut Butter Floor"), covers a 270-square-foot hexagon.
- Schippers, who passed away on June 10 at the age of 83, requested that his sculpture be displayed smoothly and without an educational purpose.
- The tribute is designed to reflect Schippers' idiosyncratic contributions to the Dutch arts scene.
- Museum staff dedicated several days to carefully apply the peanut butter for this unique homage.
