Situated on the left of the entrance on Arken's forecourt is a sculpture of a child riding a rocking horse, labelled "Powerless Structures" by Ingar Dragset and Michael Elmgreen  . The equestrian statue aims to honour the heroism of humanism.The image of a young boy astride his rocking horse encourages viewers to consider the less spectacular events in their lives, which are often the most important. The sculpture invokes life’s everyday activities and questions the tradition of monuments predicated on military victory or defeat.
