Consider this post as an attachment/update to previous Liu Bolin series. By now, we all know Liu’s incredible talent to camouflage himself. In the previous sets we’ve seen him in focus, but this is the first photo I found where Liu is photographed from a greater distance. It’s almost impossible to notice him. Check out the gallery beneath for additional sessions Liu participated in. The artist dubbed the “invisible man” is bringing his mind-bending pieces back to Europe. Liu will exhibit his unique photographs, in which he paints himself so as to “disappear” into his surroundings, at the YU Gallery in Paris in October. Liu, 36, has been known to spend up to 10 painstaking hours at each location — adding fine detail to his entire body until he is virtually undetectable. The chameleon experienced resistance from his own government, and in 2005 his Beijing studio was forcibly shut down over his political works.

10th symbol from the left
9th from the right
I think I see him in front of the red sign sign (In front of character #10 from the left), but all I see is some irregularities, perhaps some pant legs, but no defiinite torso, head, or arms.
That’s pretty good, but I can still easily see him. I sure wouldn’t be able to do that!
It actually looks like a ghost it so cool xD
In front of 10th symbol in sign.
Noticed right away in the smaller google thumbnail but was only shure on the larger version.
haha, I had some trouble finding him, but those bricks in the center were oddly a different color then the others. You might want to open it up in full screen too.
Found in 2 seconds… 9th letter from the right on the big red stripe.
Sorry 4 english, I’m Italian :)
I found him.
1st Post! These are nifty :)
easy
look at the writing
Liu is truly amazing with his camouflage. I thnk my favourite is him standing with the other people.
wow i’ve never thought he was really good until now…
I’d say it’s photoshopped, but I believe you guys, and it’s awesome!
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunny i saw it in 1 sec literally
How does he do this?
wow…!! i made the picture larger and i saw it! hes standing closer than you think….
He’s in front of the 10th character from the left.
I found him really quick! I’m kinda surprised! Wow he desguised himself really well!
First comment! =))
wow, I finally found him. At this distance the effect is almost perfect. It’s a true red letter day for Liu.
This is my favorite website. I check into it every day, but this morning I was totally put off when a banner ad at the top SHOUTED at me. Further, that ad kept flashing so I couldn’t see the illusion at all.
I’m glad it isn’t there any more. Please… if you have any say, don’t do that again!
Very impressive. It would be interesting to see a comparative picture with him against a white wall.
very nice there =]
I see something by the red sign, but what is it?
Nice! It’s in front of 我!!! But not too hard to spot. It had a different colour from the rest.
whilst he is spottable, it is still incredible that he can hide so well
hes in line with the grass patch in the middle of the streets left end.
i spotted him right away I still think though that he has immense talent…
At first I thought you were just pulling our leg and posting a blank street…I see him now! Very good!
You can tell he is at the 10 symbol it is a lighter shade of white than all the others on the banner
