Known as Lillith, Czech artist David Černý's giant sculpture, claiming "Feminism"

Via : https://art-and-fun.livejournal.com/110480.html



Expelled from the Garden of Eden for disobedience, Adam's first wife, Lilith became a demon who "kills babies"
driven by equipment used to turn the head of the structure 180 degrees with enough noise to wake the dead.



Art critic Mari Foltynova argues that Cherney's understanding of Lilith as a symbol of feminism is unacceptable,
in that the sculpture is too sexualized. Since Lilith is known as the demon responsible for the death of women
and young children during childbirth, she is therefore anti-female and cannot be a symbol of feminism.
