Lennon Wall Lennon Wall The Lennon Wall or John Lennon Wall is a wall in Prague, Czech Republic. Once a normal wall, since the 1980s it has been filled with John Lennon-inspired graffiti and pieces of lyrics from Beatles' songs. Located in a small and secluded square across from the French Embassy, the wall received its first such decoration following the 1980 assassination of John Lennon when an unknown artist painted a single image of the singer-songwriter and some lyrics. In 1988, the wall was a source of irritation for the communist regime of Gustáv Husák. Young Czechs wrote grievances on the
Wall of the Sun and Wall of the Moon "Moon". The two mosaic murals were assembled "in situ" by a team of technicians under the direct supervision of Miró and Llorens Artigas. The works were inaugurated in 1958, as same as the building, and received rave reviews. Even one of the murals, the "Wall of the Sun" won the Biennial Prize of Guggenheim Foundation. Miró later return to work for UNESCO, designing the UNESCO Medal for Pablo Picasso. Initially, the walls were outdoors, but later moved inside the building to protect them from damage caused by acid rain. Wall of the Sun and Wall of the Moon The Wall
