A 12-metre inflatable duck travelling through Limburg has been seriously damaged by stormy weather. The duck is an artwork by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman, and was moored in Hasselt during June and early July (photo). However on its first stop on a tour of Limburg, in Genk, it suffered severe damage after it was picked up by a gust of wind and thrown 50m. "We're going to have him repaired and then get him on his way as quickly as possible," said Ann Vanderheyden of art centre Z33.
