Art is subjective. Whether you are looking at a famous painting, an abstract sculpture, or an ancient drawing, your interpretation will be different from others. This is especially true when it comes to sculptures. While many are of the human form or resemble objects we are familiar with, this isn’t always the case. There are some weird and wonderful sculptures that have been created to challenge people’s views. Others make a statement about certain political or social issues. And some are just plain strange. That’s what this article is going to focus on. The weirdest sculptures from around the world.

These weird and sometimes controversial sculptures appear in locations all across the globe. From giant shuttlecocks in Kansas City to peeing statues in Prague, there is something for everyone on this list. 

1. Bull Fart Sculpture (Beijing, China)

Yes, this is a statue of a bull farting. The brainchild of artist Chen Wenling, Bull Fart Sculpture was first exhibited in a Beijing art gallery in 2009. It is meant to depict the financial crisis, with the bull pinning a man to the wall. The man in question, who has horns like the devil, is meant to represent Bernard Madoff, the infamous conman responsible for one of the biggest frauds in American financial history. It is certainly an eye-catching sculpture that is unlike anything you are likely to see in your local art gallery. 

2. Piss (Prague, Czech Republic)

This outdoor sculpture by David Cerny is of two men relieving themselves. Not only are they created to look like they are urinating, but they actually shoot water out of their penises. This is one of the weirdest statutes you will encounter in Prague, which is known for its odd artworks. The basin the two six-foot 11-inch bronze statues stand in is shaped like the Czech Republic, with the statues literally pissing on their country. What’s even weirder is you can command the men to write messages into the water via text. Bizzare. The Prague Post even ranked it number one on their list of the ‘top 10 strangest statues in Prague.’
