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 :)

Metaphor? Like people are vacuums that the state gives no regards to?

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.

However, I think this group is much less aggressive than some other "body arts" that you talked about.

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?

Funny, how to create such kind of pictures? by using what kind of softwares?

Aw Guo
2008-09-03 04:36:15

I don't think they are "created" by any software. Just find some real stuff and take the photos.

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?

I am wondering if those characters were naked or half naked could be more provocative : P
