The artwork covers a&nbsp;wall of&nbsp;the Faculty of&nbsp;Environmental Engineering and Energy on&nbsp;the main campus in&nbsp;the city centre, and is&nbsp;visible from several directions. Designed by&nbsp;Krak\u00f3w-based artist <strong>Marcin Wierzchowski<\/strong>, the mural depicts the university&#8217;s&nbsp;patron, Tadeusz Ko\u015bciuszko, in&nbsp;the style of&nbsp;a&nbsp;technical drawing, in&nbsp;blue on&nbsp;a&nbsp;white background. A&nbsp;&#8220;title block&#8221; in&nbsp;the lower left corner, a&nbsp;classic element of&nbsp;engineering drawings, carries the anniversary details.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">The design was chosen from 52 entries in&nbsp;an&nbsp;open competition. The jury was chaired by&nbsp;Rector Prof. Andrzej Szarata and included representatives of&nbsp;the Academy of&nbsp;Fine Arts in&nbsp;Krak\u00f3w, the Cogiteon Ma\u0142opolska Science Centre, the City of&nbsp;Krak\u00f3w and the arts community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;<em>Many of&nbsp;our anniversary events were fleeting. The mural will commemorate the anniversary permanently<\/em>,&#8221; said Rector Szarata. The site sits next to&nbsp;one of&nbsp;Krak\u00f3w&#8217;s&nbsp;main transport hubs, so&nbsp;thousands of&nbsp;people will see it&nbsp;every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\">The official unveiling took place on&nbsp;20 October 2025, with the ribbon cut by&nbsp;the Rector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Photo: Micha\u0142 Pierewicz<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The design was chosen from 52 entries in&nbsp;an&nbsp;open competition.
