Here are some interesting pictures from a man named "Liu Bolin". The author was born in 1973. Here you can find more works from Bolin. I loved the package of photos so much not only because he really looks like an invisible man but also due to the metaphor behind the photos.
FYI: After China shifted from a closed state to a more opened one, there are more and more great arts from the Chinese people. If you are in Beijing and want to know more about this, I can be your guide :)










Wow, this is awesome, Aw. Great stuff.
Not only awesome, but also dangerous, haha:)
I hope those pictures wouldn't make some guys unhappy :)
I hope this potos won't bring any troubles to the photographer ......
anyway, these guys are the warriors ...... best wish to them...
cool~~
Metaphor? Like people are vacuums that the state gives no regards to?
well, watch out for the rumored oct crack down guys.
delete this comment if you don't feel comfortable with it.
Maybe it's a great body arts, but i don't like it... i think if it's your first time look at these pictures, you'll be scared.
These are awesome pictures. I don't think there is anything to for the harmonious people to be afraid of. It is just self-expression!
I will take you up on your offer to show me some more of the contemporary art scene in Beijing next time I am in Beijing!
Really quite terrible, but I can not be too aware of these pictures?

The Chinese people are of great creativity! :)
There is a very great contemporary art expo near Bird Next now. It will be there till the end of September.
However, I think this group is much less aggressive than some other "body arts" that you talked about.
No need to remove any comment for it's entirely a matter of preference ;)
Funny, how to create such kind of pictures? by using what kind of softwares?
I don't think they are "created" by any software. Just find some real stuff and take the photos.
Very fascinating photographs/artwork.
Thanks for sharing them and the info regarding the artist! :-)
Thanks for this blog, Aw!
You led me to some new kind of art. I was told by a young lady that her friends like such contemporary art very much. Whenever they went to Beijing, they would spend a lot of money to buy some as collection....
These arts you uploaded here really caused me to consider the deep-seated thinking of the author. I guess he wants to tell the people that no matter what happens, the core is the human being and it's existing!
Right?
It's really so slow to load....
great stuff, thanks for sharing.
I am wondering if those characters were naked or half naked could be more provocative : P
真棒~~!
Awesome...! What a talent

Awesome dude
Liu Bolin has been doing his Hiding in the City series since 2005. It started as a political commentary on the tensions between the Chinese government and their people and the identity an environment gives an individual and vice versa. Liu Bolin will be exhibiting at Eli Klein Fine Art in New York from June 29 - August 28, 2011. Eli Klein Fine Art represents him exclusively in North and South America. More images can be found on http://www.ekfineart.com.
I can still see him.

Very nice. this performance is the best artistic amusement i've sow in the latest three years. Chinese artists are doing us something we never knew in Europe before this epoca. It seems to me their works as a klockring that get up us from a deep sleep! Very very good. Greetings from Italy.
