The irreverent artwork has gone up in NowaHuta, a suburb of Krakow, Poland, as part of the city's sixthGrolsch ArtBoom Festival.
这个不敬的作品树立于波兰克拉科夫郊外的新胡塔,作为该市第六届Grolsch ArtBoom节日的一部分。
The Fountain of the Future, as it's been called by artists Bartosz Szydlowskiand Malgorzata Szydlowska, is styled after a statue of Lenin that was once afocal point of the district.
艺术家BartoszSzydlowski 和 Malgorzata Szydlowska称这个作品为《未来喷泉》,是根据之前位于该城镇中心的一个列宁雕像雕刻出来的。
Built in the early-1950s around a massivesteelworks dedicated to Lenin, Nowa Huta was intended as an 'ideal socialisttown' that would counter-balance supposedly 'bourgeois' Krakow,reports Polskie Radio.
这座城镇是围绕一座献给列宁的巨型炼钢厂而建立起来的,原本人们打算把新胡塔建成一座“理想的社会主义城镇”,用以抗衡“资本主义的”克拉科夫,波兰电台报道。
The whole design of the district was supposed to instill a socialist worldview,with architects perceived not as mundane municial planners but rather as'engineers of the human soul.'
整个城镇的设计体现出了社会主义者的世界观,人们不把这些建筑师当作平凡的城市规划者,而是把他们当作“人类灵魂的工程师”。
But the workers proved less loyal toMarxist-Leninism than expected, and the district quickly became a centre ofopposition to the totalitarian government.
但是这里的工人并不像人们所期待的那样忠心于马克思列宁主义,所以整个城镇很快就成为了反对独裁政府的大本营。
The original bronze Lenin statue was thetarget of bomb attacks in the 1970s and 1980s, but bungling dissidents onlymanaged to damage its feet.
原先的那个列宁铜像在七八十年代的时候成为了人们袭击的目标,但是拙劣的抗议者只摧毁了铜像的足部。
