Installations that you can’t take your eyes off and then you can’t forget (14 photos)
Sculptures and installations from all over the world that deserve a separate award.
There are some sculptures that make a special impression. After all, for artists it is not only a way of expressing reality, but also a means of self-expression and a view of the world. Many master sculptors and authors of installations even incorporate something mystical and unusual into their masterpieces, which gives their works of art a philosophical meaning.

The installation is also called “Blucifer”. Its height is almost 10 meters. The sculpture is located at Denver International Airport in the United States. The author is the late artist Luis Jimenez.
This work of art is known not only for its terrifying and even creepy appearance, but also became an indirect culprit in the death of its creator.
