New statue for Litomyšl

Artist Rudolf Burda returns to Litomyšl after a year to unveil his new sculpture. The sculpture The Way of Life was created on the occasion of the bicentenary of Bedřich Smetana’s birth and bears the unmistakable handwriting of the author. Rudolf Burda gave the new “monument” of the Litomyšl native the shape of a sphere made of highly polished stainless steel material. The clean, minimalist shape of the work is intersected at eye level by a tube of coloured glass, which is uniquely imprinted with light on the sculpture’s matter, leaving geometric abstract shapes. Their sound evokes in the viewer’s mind a stream of tones that intertwine and intermingle into a unique “colourful music”.
