WTF are all these men around Waterloo?

[Curator]

It's an installation by Anthony Gormley (the fella that did The Angel of the North sculpture). It's on at the Hayward Gallery on the South Bank. Interesting factoid: each of these cast statues is of Gormley himself (he was wrapped in some kind of flim and covered in goo to get the mould) and you can see all of them from the outside upper tarrace of the Hayward. Second factoid: your girlfriend will spend longer looking at it than you will.

It's called art. Innit.

There is one on the top of the Roundhouse in Camden Town too.
I find it a bit disturbing as it looks like a potential suicide victim.
