Alicja Bogacka

A ceramic figurine by Alicja Bogacka, who prepared the comprehensive exterior design of the Hotel Spichrz in Toruń. Figures fill numerous window recesses and refer to the multi-faceted functions of the Granary. The building, built in 1719 by the Toruń merchant Jan Noggen, is one of the largest granaries in Poland. Currently, it serves as a hotel with a restaurant.Ceramic figurines, presented since 2007 in various places of the Old Town, are part of a tourist attraction. At that time, several figurines by Dariusz Przewięźlikowski, modeled on the figures of Toruń burghers from the medieval painting of the Passion of Christ from the Church of St. James appeared on the walls. The townspeople of Przewięźlikowski are situated on the wall at Podmurna Street and in the window niches of the courtyard of the Old Town Hall. And the tenement houses on Szczytna Street, and Spichrz Hotel were decorated with ceramic angels created by Alicja Bogacka.
