Igor Mitoraj in Poland — Warsaw Collector

Mitoraj's Connection to Poland

Igor Mitoraj was born in Ostrów Wielkopolski in 1944 to a Polish mother and French father. Though he spent most of his working life in Italy and France, his connection to Poland remained deep — and Warsaw holds some of his most significant permanent installations.
