Since 2018, the "Hommage an Macke" by Stephan Balkenhol has been situated at the Hofgarten at the Akademisches Kunstmuseum (Academic Art Museum).
Now someone has tampered with the work of art, giving the dark trousers a white marking resembling the logo of a sporting goods manufacturer.
The university said that it had informed the owner, the Foundation for Art and Culture, about the vandalism.
