On the occasion of the centenary of the founding of Czechoslovakia, new or restored monuments, statues, and busts of T. G. Masaryk have been unveiled in many places—some in the traditional figurative style, others seeking to go beyond it, using contemporary street art forms or modern materials. Some statues are made of bronze, others of sand.
