另一件名為《和平2號》的大型雕塑懸鐘,則因以真人大小的金色裸男塑像當鐘錘,引發民眾向議員抱怨,裸男塑像宛若上吊死屍,夜間燈光照射下十分嚇人,讓無意間路過瞥見的人大呼觸霉頭。
Another well-known work by Zhang is Peace 2, a sculpture with a large cast-iron hanging bell and a cast-iron striker in the shape of a naked man. This elicited complaints from the public, some of whom felt the striker looked like a hanged man, looking shocking under the nighttime streetlights and scaring innocent passersby.

「這本書內容很不討喜,甚至有人說看到書名《爸爸失業了》就覺得觸霉頭。」
"This is not a happy book, and some have even said they had a bad feeling upon seeing the title Daddy Lost His Job."
