A Mausoleum to yugoslavian soldiers who died in Czechoslovakia... It is officially Yugoslavian soil and nothing was decided about it after the dissolution of Yugoslavia.
It was a very strange feeling to be there...
This was an art work in Olomouc Modern Art museum:
Zdenek Beran-"Play with Cabbage heads" 1987-1908
The first thing that striked me was the terrible smell. The rotten cabbage really stunk up the whole room, and we didn't know at first where it came from. Then we saw the work and immediately understood. I pity the woman working in that room, sitting in that terrible smell.
But then, aside from that, I must say that this work really was strong. Cabbage heads really look like human heads and it all looks like a terrible massacre, a devastated battle field.
Strong piece...
Sadly, I wouldn't really recommend Olomouc Modern Art Museum... I preferred the one in Hradec-Kralove.
