Dum U cerné Matky bozí (House of the Black Madonna)
Dum U cerné Matky bozí (House of the Black Madonna) Review
In the second decade of the 20th century, young Czech architects boldly applied cubism's radical reworking of visual space to architecture and design. This cubist building, designed by Josef Gocár, is a shining example. The museum inside, refurbished and now run by the National Gallery, showcases fine examples of every genre. Inside there are three floors of paintings, sculptures, drawings, furniture, and other "applied arts" in the cubist style. And don't miss the gift shop. Although pricey, it's worth discovering for some of the oddest-looking home furnishings you've ever seen.
