Technique: <\/strong>granite sculpture<\/p>\n

Dimensions: –<\/strong><\/p>\n

Object: <\/strong>Adam Dziejowski\u2019s sculpture of Philipp Cl\u00fcver forms part of the \u201cGreat Citizens of Gda\u0144sk\u201d section of the Gda\u0144sk Open-Air Sculpture Gallery. It was created in 2008 during the Kashubian Granite Sculpture Plein-Air, which took place in the Kashubian Ethnographic Park in Wdzydze Kiszewskie. The open-air workshop was attended by 11 artists representing a generation of masters and a generation of students. All of them were asked to depict famous inhabitants of Gda\u0144sk in granite. A total of 11 sculptures were produced and subsequently placed in Gda\u0144sk\u2019s Ronald Reagan Park. At present, the gallery is composed of ten works, one of them incomplete; Bente Kluge\u2019s statue of Lech Wa\u0142\u0119sa has disappeared.<\/p>\n

Adam Dziejowski decided to sculpt Philipp Cl\u00fcver, the Gda\u0144sk-born geographer, traveller and founder of historical geography. The sculpture was placed on a plinth. The artist portrayed Cl\u00fcver in the form of a bust carved in white stone. The Gda\u0144sk geographer is depicted in a classic way for this type of representation, wearing a dress typical for the epoch, a kontusz<\/em>. His face is conveyed in accordance with Cl\u00fcver\u2019s image known from prints, but one ought to emphasize that the sculptural representation is idealized. The back of the sculpture is partially left unworked, preserving the natural texture of the stone.<\/p>\n

Place:<\/strong> The \u201cGreat Citizens of Gda\u0144sk\u201d Open-Air Sculpture Gallery is located in the park named after President Ronald Reagan, an honorary citizen of Gda\u0144sk. The gallery may be found in the part of the park situated in the Przymorze Wielkie neighbourhood. The 85 ha park stretches along the coastal belt of Gda\u0144sk, encompassing the districts of Przymorze Wielkie, the western part of Brze\u017ano and the eastern part of the \u017babianka-Wejhera-Jelitkowo-Tysi\u0105clecia quarter. This area used to be occupied by temporary allotment gardens and wasteland. The plan to develop the seaside area for recreational purposes was drawn up in 2001 and implemented in stages until 2014. In addition to areas where one can relax, engage in physical activity or make a bonfire, the park was diversified with outflow ponds with living shorelines and nesting islands for waterbirds. In 2008, the Ronald Reagan Park in Gda\u0144sk received a distinction from the Society of Polish Town Planners (TUP), which recognized it as the best managed green space in Poland.<\/p>\n
