Jewish groups expressed fury at the senseless decision to install the provocative artwork in the area where thousands of Jews were forced to live during the rule of the Nazi regime. In total, around 300,000 Jews from the Ghetto died or were sent to their death in concentration camps. The statue, entitled HIM, attracted a large number of visitors when it was first installed in November 2012. The work was visible only from a distance, and the artist did not initially say what he intended viewers to read into Hitlers pose. Organisers of the exhibition of which the statue was a part said its point was to make people reflect on the nature of evil - but others were furious by its placement in such a sensitive site. Had the artwork continued to the current day, it would include Englands 2006 World Cup loss to Portugal. Pictured is Wayne Rooney receiving a red card in the quarter final .
