Piątuś

Piątuś is a small bronze figure located in the Kuźniki neighborhood of Wrocław, measuring about 30 centimeters tall and installed in 2022. The sculpture sits in a residential area as part of a larger collection of similar artworks distributed across different parts of the city.

The statue connects to an artistic movement from the 1980s that used creative expression as a form of resistance against political control. Piątuś represents how this tradition has continued and expanded into residential neighborhoods in recent years.

Piątuś is part of a network of small bronze figures scattered throughout Wrocław that reflect a local creative impulse rooted in the city's past. Walking past it, you join countless others who have discovered these sculptures as part of daily life in the neighborhoods.

Piątuś is located in a residential neighborhood and can be found with the help of maps available at tourist information centers around the city. The small size means you need to look carefully to spot the figure among other street elements.

The figure was installed through citizen initiative rather than official cultural institutions, showing how local residents themselves keep this artistic tradition alive. This makes Piątuś a symbol of how community participation shapes the public spaces where people live.
