The World's Strangest Statues
Lindsey Erin Heim — September 5, 2008 — Art & Design
Chances are, you've never seen statues like these before. From the upside down man to the guy juggling babies, (shouldn't someone call children and youth?) these crazy pieces of art are sure to catch the eye of anyone walking past. They've probably caused a few tourist car accidents, too. After an extensive search, I've chosen these as the top ten, but the decision wasn't an easy one. If you have some down time and need a laugh, check out the others on Oddee.com.
We all know artists are creative, and can see art in things that the average person can't, but some of these designs border craziness. And for all those wondering, YES, the last photo is EXACTLY what you think it is. Pretty crappy, huh?
