The performance over the Danube that Tomáš Šoltys just made in Bratislava is causing a lot of commotion, specially because the IIHF World Championship there. I really find in this piece a perfect balance between provocation (not to the Hockey event, but in general) and poetic resolution. He built a small boat made out of ice and wood and put himself on it as a kind of monument of the purity and humanity. I can’t stop to think in Friedrich’s Wanderer above the Sea of Fog. That good I think Šoltys is.
