The invisible man returns - and he's harder to pick out than ever
- Chinese artist Liu Bolin is back with more jaw-dropping work
- Blends into fruit and veg stall, shelves of soft toys and bus stop
- Artists spend up to 10 hours at a time covering him in paint
Liu Bolin, the Chinese artist who has become world famous through his 'invisible art', is back with some his most jaw-dropping work yet. His latest exhibition at the Eli Klein Art Gallery in New York shows him melting into backdrops including shelves packed with soft toys, fruit and veg and a magazine rack.
Seamless: Artists spend hours carefully painting Liu Bolin from head to toe so he can blend in to the background
Vanished: An incredible attention to detail is required for Liu Bolin to blend into backgrounds such as these shelves full of soft toys
Disappearing act: No matter how complex the backdrop, Liu Bolin manages to become virtually invisible to the naked eye
Frozen like a statue: The artist has no problem disappearing even in an outdoor environment such as in front of this Chinese statue
Thin air: Artist Liu Bolin says his 'invisible' pictures make a statement about his place in society
Art imitating art: A wall covered in graffiti provides another fascinating backdrop for Liu Bolin to disappear
Camouflage: The artist blends in with rows and rows of people dressed in red hoods in this picture posed in Beijing
Fading away: The artist creates his own version of a family portrait with a mother, father and child stood in front of a lantern shop in Beijing
