Pawel Althamer's giant nude man usually is seen floating high in the sky but I can tell you it was pretty impressive just walking around him.

I love Paul Mccarthy's vision of my x-President. Actually I had the pleasure of seeing his solo show at Fondazione Nicola Trussardi in Milan last year.

This guy just started taking off his clothes. First I tried not to look at him as I'm not that big on giving exhibitionists the attention that they want but I guess he was part of the installation even though I was the only one in the room.

There were also interesting films and video installations.
