Britain 'disappears from map of Europe'
Britain has "disappeared from the map" of Europe in a controversial
European
Union sculpture to be unveiled on Monday in Brussels.
By Bruno Waterfield in Brussels
The Czech Republic, current holders of the EU presidency, has
commissioned a
large scale "provocation" for the Brussels building of the Council of
Ministers which hosts national leaders during summits.
The installation takes the form of a giant jigsaw map representing the
"clichés and stereotypes" of each of the EU's 27 member states by
different
national artists. Conservative Roman Catholic Poland is depicted by a
sculpture of priests raising the rainbow flag of the gay movement,
subverting the iconic image of the American soldiers planting the Stars
and
Stripes on Iwo Jima. France, despite the efforts of President Nicolas
Sarkozy to reform its labour laws, is represented by a map of France
covered
with the inscription "Strike!". The Netherlands is shown as having sunk
beneath the sea in the aftermath of climate change and all that appears
above the waves are the minarets of mosques, an explosive reference to
the
country's high levels of Islamic immigration. EU officials have expressed
concern. "This is very provocative for an official building and does not
seem to have been properly discussed in the appropriate forum," said one
official. Alexandr Vondra, the Czech Deputy Prime Minister, has defended
the
project as a way of confronting prejudice. "We have given space for the
free
expression of artists from 27 countries. Art is to arouse emotions and it
is
provocative sometimes," he said. --

Bardzo ladnie!
The Czech at least have not lost their sense of humour.
