It is composed of material found by Jan Gulmans at the former camp where approximately 210 American soldiers were stationed on the D-section of Blue Bay in the years between 1942 and 1945. At Jan&#8217;s request, Yubi created a sculpture of these jumbled bits and pieces. With its big head, big belly, and silver cords on its chest it reminded Jan of the military police where he spent his military service, and it was thus that Jan gave the sculpture its name. There are brake pedals on the MP: moderate your rages! Yubi\u2019s MP has previously been shown at the &#8220;Tropical Kingdom&#8221; exhibition in 2013\/2014 and &#8220;Guera na K\u00f2rsou ?!&#8221; at the Cura\u00e7ao Museum in 2015, which Princess Beatrix opened. Jan and Anke Gulmans donated the MP Blue Bay \u201942 to the Blue Bay Sculpture Foundation. According to them, this mixed media sculpture belongs here and nowhere else; \u201cThe material comes from here, we lived here and it was made by our friend.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Near one of the edges of the Blue Bay Resort, in front of the Blue Battle Museum (where the role of the American soldiers in the Second World War on Curacao is explained and exhibited) is the MP Blue Bay \u201942 by Yubi Kirindongo.
