Visitor can interupt 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.

Do they? How do they reply? How do they "write" the reply? "Written in water?" Ugh.

Hmmm. A pattern begins to emerge...

And here...

Poor guy..... having to live mornings for eternity. I guess prostate problems are the least of this bronze god's worries. Always use caution when peeing "bronzed".....it'll put your eye out.

There is the little pee boy in Brussels too... they even dress him up in clothes. When I went to Belgium in high school, we bought this one kid on the trip a chocolate pee boy for his birthday. I really wish I would have purchased a pee boy corkscrew.

SmartAZ · 09-27-2005, 09:05 PM

I didn't need to see that.

seakdivers · 09-27-2005, 11:04 PM

Ummmm.... are we sure that he's peeing, and not doing something else? He seems a bit "firm" even for a sculpture.

Or he's stuck with a perpetual morning pee boner...

I have seen "Les Mannekin des Pis" cork screws. They are quite absurd. I think they were a popular item in the Public Radio catalogs a few years back (Signal and Wireless, I believe). I also remember the "drink servers." You put your adult beverage of choice in the dispenser, push the little button and he wees into your glass.

I am afraid that I know the kind of people that would think such a thing was clever.

How did the artist get Bon Jovi to pose for him?

Yeah. Never, even during my drunkest nights, did I ever feel compelled to take a leak with a double-fisted grip.

We need to move this entire thread to the WTF thread because this is one big WTF! I don't know who's the real WTF here, the artist, the art it self, or purhaps the chic at the top of the ladder.

glatt · 09-28-2005, 10:24 AM

Interesting. Would you climb the ladder for a look?

I'd be curious, but afraid to look like a fool. I'm not sure if I would look in. I probably would, if there weren't too many people around.

BigV · 09-28-2005, 11:08 AM

I bet it's dark and smelly. That's about all I need to know.

BigV · 09-28-2005, 11:10 AM

Another installation of this same concept has the scuptures "vibrating and exuding a greasy liquid". Riiiiiiiiight.

Next!

Looks like the borders of Austria to me.

The Czech Republic, actually.

And even though the artist doesn't say so on his site, either in English or in his native language, I think that's right:
