Story
Konstruktor looks like someone who has just spotted a flaw in the plans. He peers over big thick-framed glasses from under a pointed cap, with a pencil-like tool in his raised hand and a clever, slightly weary smile. He stands by a glass wall on neat paving, a tiny engineer on watch over the building site of the day.
History & Significance
Konstruktor stands at Strzegomska 55C in the Szczepin district. Wromap.pl names the sculptor as Marlena Zakrzewska; no installation date was found in the sources we could check. Wromap.pl notes that access to the spot may be restricted by a barrier, fence or gate. Wrocław's bronze dwarfs trace back to the Orange Alternative, a peaceful, absurdist protest movement founded in the city in 1986 by Waldemar Fydrych, whose members painted dwarfs on walls. Since 2005 the city has filled its streets with bronze dwarfs, and there are now hundreds of them.
Inspiration
