Notes of a beginner hawker. Note No. 4. Prague is incomprehensible to the mind
Previous reflections on Prague topics:
Note No. 1. Introductory Practice
Prague is not just a classic beauty, it is a hooligan lady who seems to live according to long-established rules and laws, but no, no, and she will throw out what a Ferdibobel : )).
"Dancing" house
You walk so calmly, admiring the architecture. . .
. . . and then bam! – people flying with umbrellas (Waiting for Happiness, 2013, Michal Trpak, Trade Union Square):
Here are hallucinogenic mushrooms:
Yeah, now the monsters have crawled along the walls : ))
Or unexpected graffiti among classic austere buildings:
Or a full barrel of jaws in a display case:
Of course, I look at my own children eating marmalade worms and spiders almost without a shudder, but I have never seen such a riot of extraordinary sweets!
Or here: we went toSpanish synagogue, met (author Yaroslav Ron, 2003, on Vezenskaya street. It is a sculptural group depicting Franz Kafka riding on the shoulders of a headless figure. The shape of the monument is inspired by Franz Kafka's story "Description of a Struggle"):
We did not know anything about the work of the scandalous sculptor David Czerny. Somehow, during the preparation, they were more and more interested in historical sights. Or rather, there were photos of “pissing” and “spinning”, “hanging”, etc. in the tour reviews, but somehow my mind was not fixed on this. Therefore, a meeting with his "Crawling Babies" was very shocking for us, and even in the dark:
Of course, the Internet introduced me to Czerny's works, but I'll probably have to see it with my own eyes. . .

And you try to figure out what the artist wanted to say with this... I don’t know what : )).
And here, for example, are creative signs in a pub, which itself is stylized as a medieval tavern, and is located in the basement of an old mansion. It seems that I don’t differ in particular strictness of morality (yeah, I can even express myself), I confess, nevertheless, unexpectedly:
Yeah, you have to be prepared for all sorts of different unusual and unusual things when getting to know Prague, so beautiful and so... incomprehensible : )).
