Strange Monsters of Madrid

When we were in the nation's capital recently, we spent a few hours walking around the Parque Del Retiro, Madrid's equivalent of New York's Central Park. At the time there was an exhibition of some bizarre humanoid sculptures that had multiple faces. The point of them being that they looked like they had a face from any angle. Needless to say, with the right mindset, they were quite comically creepy.

Is it coming or going?

Sure! Why not a bronze version?

No, Christopher! Look out! You're not in the Hundred Acre Wood anymore!

Gah! The hands!

Because there weren't enough faces, some of them had chest tattoos.

Ummm...

Is this a right hand or a left hand?

These statues are by Juan Ripollés, who, judging from the picture in that link, is just the right amount of crazy to create this stuff.
