Surprisingly, Prague can feel a little like Barcelona: both cities boast distinctive, recognisable artistic personalities. In Prague, the contemporary counterpart to those visionary architects and sculptors is David Černý. His striking, provocative pieces have shaped the city's modern character and inspired many other artists to add daring projects to the urban fabric.
On this route you will encounter dozens of fascinating works that capture Černý's wit and whimsy alongside contributions from his contemporaries. Highlights include the Embryo, the huge crawling babies, Kafka's rotating steel head, playful yellow penguins, and a number of subterranean and gallery spaces that showcase contemporary approaches to public art.
The audio format guides you between stops with contextual commentary, anecdotes and historical background so each piece comes alive. The walk blends well-known landmarks with hidden gems, offering both startling visual moments and quieter, reflective installations. Ideal for art lovers and curious travellers, the route reveals how modern sculpture dialogues with Prague's older streetscapes, inviting you to discover unexpected perspectives and fresh interpretations of the city.
