Cerny's Entropa And European Stereotypes

To celebrate the Czech Republic's ascendency to the EU presidency, artist David Cerny was commissioned to create a piece of art which represents Europe. The controversial piece, called Entropa, makes fun of each EU member instead. In fact, to represent Great Britain's separateness from the rest of Europe, it is not even in the artwork.
