A serie of installations is spread around the Royal palace and its garden, the installation titled : Animali A Corte: Vite Mai Viste.
Various art installation of animals made in different materials are placed inside and outside of the Royal palace, includingin the royal garden which is free acess to the public.
One of the installation is these giant snails in the garden.
On the first few days, there was not warning signs about no touching of the exhibition pieces and of course no climbing on top and no riding of the snails.
Then, some people took them as if they are in the children playground, not only allowing their children to ride the snails, the parents too took turns to sit on the snails.
The result is, after just a few days of the exhibition, one of the snail was broken and needed repair.
Warning signs are then placed near the exhibited pieces....
