The first time I discovered this, was whilst recently visiting Universal Studios in LA. Completely fooled me ... big applause to the Performing Arts!

Explore and discover through the net.

I grew up watching living statues in the main park in my hometown back in chile, street perfomers are part of our culture. Gotta love the art.

I become a living statue every time my wife tells me to do something...
She is not amused.

I saw one for the first time during my first trip to the big city of New York.

... scared the poo out of me when he moved.

For a great living statue performance (both in theatre and sometimes on the street), check out the beautiful and astounding work of Jerome Murat.

The best living Statue I have ever seen is Mark Abbati at http://joyunspeakable.net/

He is a super nice guy too!

My seven year old daughter has just seen her first living statue, we have a video of her nerously trying to put money in his hat. She wouldn't go close enough......

I actually have a bit of a phobia of living statues. And life-sized statues, for that matter... I guess I'm just a little jumpy.
