Antoni Rzasa's exhibit was a temporary exhibit at the House of Dlugosz museum operated by the Diocese. The artist's work is unique and, as the curator priest pointed out, he seemed to be making some point in his symbolism. His creations are made of one piece of wood and sculpted with an axe. The intricacy of some of the work is astounding, considering his tools. Often the work shows people with only 3 fingers, or an exaggeratedly large hand, long arm, or other similar oddities.
You can see more of his work (and read the unusual story surrounding our discovering it) in my Travelogue: Antoni Rzasa ~ Coincidence or karma?
