20 Strange Sculptures

01. A Crocodile eating a Capitalist, Brooklyn, NY, USA

A crocodile eating a capitalist? I would have built such sewer covers all across the Soviet Union for the propaganda purposes!


02. Chasing One Another, Tokyo, Japan
I just love that one, what are they doing?


03. Mystic Carhenge near Alliance, Nebraska, USA
Wikipedia: “Carhenge is a replica of England’s Stonehenge located near the city of Alliance, Nebraska on the High Plains. Instead of being made from stones (as is the case with the original Stonehenge), Carhenge is constructed of vintage American automobiles, all covered with gray spray paint. Built by Jim Reinders”


04. Guy on a bicycle, Chile
This guy has a spyglass instead of a head, and seems to be riding to the sky, towards the stars. A nice idea, when you think of it.


05. Ballerina man, Los Angelo’s, CA, USA
If I met someone looking like that, I wouldn’t shake his hand.


06. Fancy Cow, Düsseldorf, Germany
Is it a British police uniform? This sculpture stands in someone’s garden.


07. Device to Root Out Evil, Vancouver, Canada
Sculpture by Dennis Oppenheim “Device to Root Out Evil”. Do you know the idea of this upside down church?


08. Engagement Rings, Vancouver, Canada
Two engagement rings in the ground at English Bay.
By Dennis Oppenheim, made of glass, steel, and Aluminum. Must be a good place to engage.


9. Certainties on the gravitation of an Elephant, Paris, France
Quote: “At a distance of 18,000 km from the earth, the elephant Wursa could balance on her trunk.
It is on the basis of learned scientific calculations that Daniel Firman reached this conclusion, and came above all to produce this extraordinary work which confounds all our certainties regarding the gravitation of bodies.”


10. Disturbing sculpture, location unknown
I don’t get it – how can anyone create such sculptures? Ugly and disturbing! What’s the purpose of having it?


11. Rusty Men, London, UK
Quote from the photographer: “I’m fairly sure it’s Anthony Gormley, from the style and nature of the sculpture”


12. Pig the Cyclist, Texas, USA
Someone was using hard drugs..


13. Sculpture of Pig as Chinese Monk, Phoenix, Arizona
What is common between a monk and a pig?


14. Two peeing guys, Prague, Czech Republic
Sculpture by David Cerny. Let’s just cite the picture author here:
” The idea is disarmingly simple. Two bronze sculptures pee into their oddly-shaped enclosure.
While they are peeing, the two figures move realistically. An electric mechanism driven by a couple of microprocessors swivels the upper part of the body, while the penis goes up and down. The stream of water writes quotes from famous Prague residents.
Visitor can interrupt them by sending SMS message from mobile phone to a number, displayed next to the sculptures. The living statue then ‘writes’ the text of the message, before carrying on as before.”


15. Passing through the wall, Montmartre, Paris
It looks like this guy is passing through that wall. He also has an ugly hand. One of my favorites on this list of 20 strange sculptures.


16. Vomiting Fountain Sculpture, London, UK
The sculptor really has a sense of humor, I see.


17. Traffic Light Tree, London, UK
What would you do if you stop by this traffic light while driving?

Designed by Pierre Vivant, “Traffic Light Tree” has 75 sets of traffic lights. The sculpture was created to mimic a tree structure and reflect the energy of the developing Canary Wharf area


18. The Spider that Ate Parliament, Ontario, Canada
“Shot from this angle, it appears to be attacking the Parliament Buildings. “ Notice a little guy near the spiders leg, the sculpture is really huge


19. Skull on a man, Prague, Czech Republic
A really odd sculpture, that is said to be “inspired” by the works of Kafka


20. Skeletons in love, Nong Khai, Northeast Thailand
In love even after their death, must really stand out at the cemetery.
