Prague, September 2024

“Znovuzrození (Rebirth) is a 1983 bronze sculpture by Josef Malejovský (1914–2003). It is installed outside the National Theatre in Prague, Czech Republic, on a piazzetta which was named ‘Náměstí Václava Havla’ (Václav Havel Square) in 2016 to honor the first Czech president. The statue is a popular subject to artistic interventions - it has been wrapped in bubblegum-like cover, dressed in Carmen costume or into a lookalike of the famous ‘Woman in Gold’ painting by Gustav Klimt.” (Znovuzrození, Wikipedia)
