Copy of Entropa sold to Slovak art dealer

A smaller copy of the controversial artwork Entropa, created by Czech artist David Černý for the Czech EU presidency, will be purchased by a Slovak art dealer for 85,000 euros, the Czech daily Hospodarské noviny wrote on Friday. The two-by-two metres copy was made by one of the artists who participated in the creation of the original alongside its main author Černý and was exhibited at the Vienna art fair that ended last Sunday. The dealer who acquired it is establishing a large collection of modern art in Slovakia, the paper said.
