World's Largest Underwater Museum

The Subaquatic Sculpture Museum is located at the West Coast National Park in Quintana Roo, on the Yucatan Peninsula. Famous underwater artist Jason de Caires Taylor, who created the world’s first underwater sculpture park, is overseeing the museum. The statues will represent traditional as well as modern Mexican narratives. ‘The Silent Evolution’ is a work of art expected to be the final addition to the Subaquatic Sculpture Museum. It will mix growing coral with the concrete to express the passage of time. Theme-based galleries featuring Mayan indigenous warriors or dream catchers will undoubtedly add to the popularity of this museum.

Dinosaurs Sand Sculptures

An exhibition of massive sand sculptures of dinosaurs was took place at Frankston Waterfront in Australia. About 21 talented and highly creative sculptors from Australia and around the world took almost three weeks to bring these creatures to ‘life’.

There is an annual competition for such performers at Arnhem in the Netherlands. Also, the U.S. city of Laguna Beach, California, is home to the annual Pageant of the Masters show which is created by local amateur volunteers as part of the city's Festival of the Arts. The show presents living statue recreations of several dozen famous artworks in one evening. The show is set to classical music and about two minutes are allocated per artwork. In Portugal, the city of Espinho organizes since 1997 a living statues contest, the Sunday of June near the 16 (the municipal holiday).

Epcot Center in Orlando, Florida has hosted interactive examples of living statues from Unity Productions since April 1995.

At concerts for The Dresden Dolls, there are often living statues, as the lead singer/pianist Amanda Palmer was a living statue before starting The Dresden Dolls.
