Hilo de Ariadna
Trifot
Unmistakably a part of the public space outside the multi-genre artistic venue of the Czech Photo Centre is a sculpture by the Czech artist David Černý. His twelve-metre tall “Trifot”, made of stainless steel in a variety of finishes, represents an animated walking monster, whose head consists of a set of cameras (actual brands and models) on tripod legs. The set of cameras stands for the developments in photography over the last few decades.
