The difficult report/ratio of the Czech Republic with her communist past and the art of this time were illustrated by the qualification of cultural monument concerning the buildings of second half of the 20th century such as the store Maj Tesco with Prague.The historians of art propose that these monuments testify one time, of an artistic current, although their esthetic quality is assessed little.
