Liu Bolin knows how to dissapear!

Some of you may have seen this on Yahoo's front page last week.  I wanted to share it with you because I think it's incredibly cool.  With all the uninteresting interpretive art out there, this just seems to be very unique and consuming.  The artist's name is Liu Bolin.  Enjoy and be amazed!  It will take a you a second or two to find him in some of these.  Here are several of his projects:










This from Mike Krumboltz of the Yahoo News Blog - The Upshot:

The Chinese artist does more than just wear camouflage pants and stand next to a bush. With the help of some assistants, Bolin paints himself, head to toe and unassumingly just stands there--in grocery stores, next to piles of coal, on staircases, you name it. And, unless you look really closely, you'll miss him entirely--which is pretty much the point.  Bolin, who has been at this for several years, has built up an impressive portfolio. A gallery of his work can been seen at Eli Klein Fine Art.
