You step off Wenceslas Square into a maze of painted walls and ironic sculptures; Prague's modern-art scene meets the city's cobbles with a wry grin. The guide leads you past Lucerna Palace's inverted Saint Wenceslas — Černý's barb at civic myth — then down alleys where spray paint and political memory mingle. The Vltava hums nearby, its current a quiet counterpoint to the city's visual provocations.
