Krasnal Sylwester Chęciński, Dwarf statue at Dolnośląskie Centrum Filmowe, Wrocław, Poland.
Krasnal Sylwester Chęciński is a bronze statue at the Lower Silesian Film Center in Wrocław showing a seated film director holding a script and megaphone. The figure rests atop a spherical stone base positioned within the facility.
The statue was unveiled in 2022 to honor Sylwester Chęciński, a prominent Polish film director who created influential works throughout his career. His films shaped Polish cinema and left a lasting legacy in the industry.
The statue adds to Wrocław's dwarf collection, which emerged in the 1980s as a form of artistic protest during communist rule. These figures continue to shape the city's identity and mark a period of creative resistance.
The statue is located inside the film center building, so visitors need to enter the facility to view it. Check ahead to confirm the building is open to the public and accessible at the time of your visit.
The statue was intentionally placed near the seat where Chęciński used to watch films, connecting the figure to his personal habits. This detail honors his relationship with cinema and his lifelong passion for film.
