Now these are pretty ‘cool’
Heh, I wonder how russian artists come up with these rather strange ‘sculptures’. If you see those in the dark, you will probably ask yourself “wtf is standing there..”
WE NEED NIGHT SHOTS!

Fantastic!
Wonderful public art, these remind me of the characters in russian fairy tales. and I agree with Pete. some atmospheric shots would be great. thanks for starting my day with fantasy and imagination.
Wow ! Beautiful !
Great!! Does anybody know WHICH Moscow suburb is home to these fellows? I wanna see them.
The style reminds me of an Irish artist (whom I can’t remember the name of) that had a sculpture of a horse in the park for “the centre of Europe” in Lithuania
I’d hardly say those are “on the streets”. They simply appear to be singular art pieces done in a park. Cool, yes? But your story embellishes the purpose…
Does anyone know who actually designed and made these? Who is the artist?
