Hi Marisa,

A group of artists in Amsterdam have covered the bigger half of Museum 
square with white crosses like that of graves.

Museumsquare is a big grass field, right in the middle of the museum 
district and across from the Concert building. The reason this protest
took place there is because on one of the corners of the square the US
embassy is located. 

I took a picture of a picture that appeared in the Dutch newspaper NRC,
and put it online here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~menso/museumplein.jpg

If you need a good quality copy for the article, I suggest you contact
the NRC newspaper :)

bye,

Menso
