The Galeria possesses a huge collection of stainless steel sculptures made by Marian Owczarski, the director of the Galeria. The subject matter of these sculptUres is very broad, ranging from sacred and practica1 art to abstract composition. Annually the Galeria organized competitions for young artists of Polish descent. Part of their work is kept in the Galeria collection. |
