John Hejduk Works/Jan Palach Memorial | Opening on March 29, recommended by Nicholas Korody
The Jan Palach Memorial is a powerful monument designed by the famed architect John Hejduk in remembrance of the Czech activist who self-immolated in protest of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia, helping to spark national resistance against its communist government. Comprising two structures, the monument will be recreated and placed in front of the Cooper Union. The installation coincides with an exhibition of photographs of Hedjuk's work by the incomparable Hélène Binet.
