Curious shoppers can interact with the characters who are dressed in sophisticated costumes and make-up to create the illusion of living statues, each mimicking the behaviour and mannerisms of the legends who helped shape our society.

"We wanted to bring something new and different to shoppers that has never been seen before," the show's artistic director Radovan Michalov tells Localiiz. "This meant offering more than just living statues that you can see in cities around the world, so we created an exhibition which brings world-famous icons to the public where they can get to know them in a different way.
"People will remember these historical figures more if they have the experience of meeting them, rather than just reading about them, so there's an educational element too. Where else can you meet all of these legends together in one place?"
Come face to face with history at the exhibition which runs until October 13 (12pm to 7.30pm daily). Don't forget to post your pics on Instagram under the hashtag #ifcBIGNAMES, but watch out for that Coco - she'll spray you with No.5!
