The Bródno Sculpture Park, inaugurated in June 2009, is intended to be a long-term project, involving artists, residents of Bródno district, city council officers and an art institution – the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw. The park has very quickly become one of the most recognizable spaces for public art in this part of Europe.
This park, located in the residential estate of Bródno, a part of the district of Targówek, had not been frequented by art lovers before. Being a unique example of a local initiative, the park refers to various traditions of art being exhibited outside of galleries and museums. The park helps implement the formula of “social sculpture” and public art in general. Each of the works presented in the Bródno Sculpture Park has a different character, durability, style and level of “functionality.”
To this project contributed the following artists: Paweł Althamer, Youssouf Dara, Olafur Eliasson, Jens Haaning, the group Nowolipie, Susan Philipsz, Katarzyna Przezwańska, Monika Sosnowska, and Rirkrit Tiravanija.
