\""Metalmorphosis"<\/a>
“Metalmorphosis” by David \u010cern\u00fd. A moving portrait of Kafka, probably. Someone has posted a video here<\/a>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

“Saint Wenceslas” by David \u010cern\u00fd<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

“Slight Uncertainty” – Fiberglas sculpture by Michal Trp\u00e1k<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Caught<\/a>
Caught in a pissing match! More David \u010cern\u00fd.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

We recently returned from a trip to the Czech Republic. Prague has so many interesting sculptures, especially pieces by David \u010cern\u00fd, Prague’s bad-boy artist.<\/p>\n

His “Metalmorphosis” is hypnotic. We stood and watched it for longer than I would have imagined. His “Saint Wenceslas” is a biting commentary on this sculpture by Josef V\u00e1clav Myslbek<\/a>\u00a0in nearby Wenceslas Square.<\/p>\n

We saw most of the sculptures listed in this article<\/a>\u00a0in the\u00a0Prague Post<\/em>. Unfortunately, I’ve lost a chunk of photos, or I’d include them here.<\/p>\n

It would have been easy to miss Michal Trp\u00e1k’s sculpture, “Slight Uncertainty”, hanging above a busy intersection, but our friend Jenny was there to make sure I didn’t. Thanks, Jenny!<\/p>\n

I’ll save the modern galleries and medieval manuscripts for later posts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
