Torzo Tanku

by David Černý

The torso of a tank is positioned on Kinsky Square, which David Černý installed here for the fiftieth anniversary of the Soviets occupying the Czech lands as a commemoration of this period. Initially, Černý received permission to locate the torso of the tank here for just a few days, but in the end, the local council and conservationists were able to come to an agreement, and the torso is to remain here permanently.
