Visitors will also see German artist Tobias Rehberger's 11 small sculptures, each of which portrays a yellow bird resting on a tree branch. Together they form a work titled Zippy (1 Year) - Zippy (11 Years) and will be installed everywhere at the booth. They were produced in Jingdezhen, the porcelain town in Jiangxi province. Rehberger made the work in memory of a pet canary which he received as a gift for his first birthday and accompanied him for 11 years.
