Krasnal Moteusz, Dwarf statue in Nadodrze district, Wrocław, Poland.
Krasnal Moteusz is a bronze statue in the Nadodrze district, positioned at street level and representing a character known as a Skeiner. The figure displays detailed craftsmanship typical of Wrocław's dwarf sculpture tradition.
This statue was installed on February 2, 2014, continuing a tradition that started with the Orange Alternative, an artistic movement against communism in the 1980s. The movement used small artistic forms to express resistance and created an unparalleled artistic legacy.
This figure is part of a collection of over 400 dwarf statues scattered across Wrocław, forming an open-air gallery that shows how the city celebrates contemporary art in public spaces.
The statue stands on the street near Staszica 20 in the Nadodrze district and is easily found on foot. The location is accessible by public transportation and fits well into walking routes through the neighborhood.
The Skeiner character is a specific type among Wrocław's dwarf figures with its own visual identity. This distinction between different character types makes each statue an individual element within the city's art collection.
