At any time of the night or day there are always six guys urinating in public under the Groesbeekdreef. Usually this would translate into a €75 fine for the perpetrators, but they get away with it because they're statues. The Pissers of Amsterdam, a free translation of this controversial work of art, have been taking a perpetual leak since 2010. The life-size persons, self-portraits of the creator, are the brainchild of Belgian artist Pascale Tayou. This, of course, is an obvious homage to his native land's most famous statue, Manneken Pis in Brussels, yet somehow he has managed to turn a banal topic into a colourful entity.
