Information: From the original final report
Every nation has its own symbols, its own style. We have tried to represent the living spirit, the living Heritage of Poland that survives here in America. We congratulate the Polish American community for actively participating in this work of public art and for creating a mural that is not only for all Polonia, but for all Chicago. We hope this mural will not signify the end, but a beginning of visual communication. Art should not only be a means to decorate this city, but a tool for community expression.
Razem!
