Product description

Original illustrated guide to unconventional places in the capital city. From residential neighborhoods to the industrial outskirts, and from natural monuments back to the very historical center. This book will take you on walks and excursions to places you've probably never been, perhaps never even knew existed. Besides the outskirts, often left fallow and wildly overgrown, the author will also guide you through the inner periphery, i.e., places that are almost under our noses but which we overlook on our regular routine walks. 496 square kilometers can transform into a magical garden where new treasures await behind every fence, bush, or ruined wall… Afterword by Radan Haluzík and Epos 257.

zine production, post-graffiti, mural painting, and rap. He is the author of the comic books METRO (2017)
and HOLIDAYS (2023), and for almost a decade co-published the comic magazine XRXMAG. He creates
murals and exhibitions as half of the artistic duo OBRAS AKROBAD. He performs in rap groups
groups Dvě Slunce and DBKL. He lives and creates in his native Prague, which is a significant starting point for
his work – see, for example, the free series PRAGA CAPUT REI PUBLICAE, the latest
offshoot of which is this book.
