Nový věk, Public sculpture at Brno Exhibition Center, Czech Republic

The Nový věk sculpture stands at the entrance of the exhibition center, featuring abstract forms that represent the atomic age and scientific advancement.

Created by Vincenc Makovský for Expo 58 in Brussels, the sculpture received the Grand Prix award and was initially named Atomový věk.
