When I first looked at the photos, I thought the “mirror man” was a sculpture. But I found this information from a photographer nicknamed SilverSky who took the pictures, he states “I was in LA and this guy shows up in a suit from head to toe made of glass. I thought it was pretty cool.”

Update (September 21st, 2010): Thanks to reader Fourfirearts for sending the following information: “the ‘mirror man’ aka ‘The Collector‘ is by the artist Gustav Troger of San Francisco & Vienna. He is in North America now on another ‘The Collector’ tour.

Notes about Gustav Troger (from Dorotheum):

(born 1951 in Kohlschwarz, Styria; lives and works in Graz, Los Angeles and San Francisco) (…)

(…) After his space and metal sculptures Troger concentrated on plastic artifacts and mirrors as the raw materials for his work. He works in the fields of painting, graphics, sculpture, performance and installation art.
