This burial of a MiG-21MF near Prague (Dolzhe Břežany) is the work of British artist Roger Hiorns, part of the Gallery Rudolfinum 100th anniversary celebrations (2017). The artist idea was to put machines which belong up in the air underground. Not his first time, he buried the first one outside Birmingham a year before, and wanted to do it again with an entire fleet all across the world.
