The Czech Republic has many claims to fame but one of its greatest and most curious regarding the arts is the country's unique history of Cubist architecture, celebrated in an exhibition and recent new book named "Czech Architectural Cubism".

In fact, Czech architects were the first and only ones in the world to ever design original Cubist buildings. A look at their legacy in today's Arts.
