"Marcin Rożek"

The mural depicts Marcin Rożek. Marcin Rożek (8 November 1885 – 19 May 1944) was a Polish sculptor and painter and co-founder and professor at the School of Decorative Arts in Poznań. Rożek is most closely associated with the region of Greater Poland and the city of Poznań, in particular, although he was a well-established and highly regarded artist throughout Poland during the 1920s and 1930s. Imprisoned by the Nazis in 1941, he was transported to Auschwitz concentration camp, where he died of exhaustion in 1944. The mural was created on the facade of the Vocational School Complex in Wolsztyn.

Mural was painted by Mark Maksimovich with Jarosław Ptak, Alex Novitski and Bartosz Wągrowski.
