[1] In 1990, Galschiøt, Erik Mortensen and Jean Voigt, created the sculpture The Ringwearer's Jacket, which was commissioned by the Clothing Industry's Union of Denmark for Queen Margrethe II’s 50th birthday.

In 2008, Galschiøt started The Color Orange campaign against alleged violations of human rights in China.

The prize has been awarded, among others, to German writer Günter Grass, the American film producer Steven Spielberg and in 2004 to Margrethe II.

1998-2001 awarded once a year to a municipality that had made a special effort in the research and implementation of renewable solar energy.

The Pillar was later moved to a site at the entrance of the village of Acteal in Chiapas, where 45 unarmed indigenous people were killed by a paramilitary group on 22 December 1997.

"[citation needed] On 1 May, the Pillar of Shame was permanently erected in Belém, capital of the northern state of Pará, where the Eldorado massacre had taken place in connection with a land occupation.

Mayor Edmilson Rodrigues declared at the inauguration: "Despite of resistance from the elite, we stick to our promise of setting up the Pillar of Shame as a symbol opposing oppression and violence that is taking a toll of lives and depriving people of their rights".

[citation needed] On 4 June 2022, 33rd anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre in Beijing and the day of commemoration of the anti-government protests in Hong Kong, Jens Galschiøt’s famous sculpture Pillar of Shame was installed in DOX Centre for Contemporary Art in Prague.

The exhibition was arranged in cooperation with The Mobile Gallery in Kolding that had received a 76-metre-long submarine as a gift from Gorbatjev.

[15] French artist Jean Dewasne was responsible for the outside ornamentation, Galschiot for the inside fitting up of the submarine.

[16]Galschiøt mounted one-ton heavy black concrete sculptures[17] in famous places in twenty cities across Europe.

The purpose was, in an untraditional way, to focus on the increasing violence, intolerance, racism and persecution of minorities, that Europe had been witnessing.

On the occasion of the tenth anniversary, Jens Galschiot and his staff initiated a search to find out what has happened to each of the 20 sculptures.

[20] In Bonn it has even been incorporated in the German state's art collection, and the statue also found a permanent place in Copenhagen, Milano,[21] Barcelona[22] and Innsbruck.

The anniversary was celebrated during the European Social Forum 12–15 November 2003 in Paris where two Beasts participated in the big manifestation accompanied by Survival of the Fattest and 14 Hunger Boys.

[citation needed] The Children of Abraham is a dialogue project created by Jens Galschiøt, which highlights the three monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

In 1994 Galschiøt bought the factory complex along with several of the surrounding buildings and adjoining land so that the area now is about 10,000 square metres.
