A random group of creative people in the city of Utrecht have put up exhibits all over the city featuring photos of apes. The photo documentary group FOTODOK launched this collaborative project along with English photographer James Mollison last week, which features the faces of Apes. Or as their press release puts it :

"in different sanctuaries over the world Mollison photographed apes, who are victims of the bushmeat trade or illegal pet trade. He depicts these threatened animals as individuals with their own character and identity. Mollison’s purpose with this series is to let us rethink our position in the chain of nature. And to raise questions about identity."

Apparently the Apes are also present on popular social networking sites like Hyves and Facebook, although I myself am not friends with any of them.

Full details in both English and Dutch are available on their website, and of course one of the great things about public outdoor art, is that its free and scattered throughout the city! See their map for exact locations.
