Chinese artist Liu Bolin -- also known as "The Invisible Man" -- is painted by students of the Stuttgart State Academy of Art and Design, in southern Germany, to blend into a wall of magazine covers. With his art performances that explore the relationship between humans and their environment, Liu has garnered attention across the world. He began his famous "Hide in the City" series, for which he painted himself into various cityscapes, to protest the destruction of Beijing's artist village Suo Jia Cun in November 2005. His artworks are understood as social commentary on pop culture and governmental oppression that aim to create a space for those who have been rendered invisible.
