Kraków to unveil new mural dedicated to director Andrzej Wajda

A new mural dedicated to the renowned Polish film director Andrzej Wajda is set to be unveiled in Kraków on October 20. Located at Al. Kijowska 50, the artwork, titled ‘Wajda czarno na białym’, was created by artist Bartosz Podlewski.

The project was the winner of a competition organized to commemorate the Year of Andrzej Wajda. The mural features a black-and-white depiction of the director holding a camera, surrounded by titles of his most significant films. The design was selected from 28 entries for its ability to integrate the director's cinematic legacy with the building's architecture.
