Piotr Bubak, "The Old Man and the Virgin".
Sculpture, bronze and stone
The beauty and energy of youth in the shadow of the symbolic arms (symbol of care) of the old man and his hat (experience and knowledge)
A highly symbolic work reminding us of transience, passing, the fleeting power of corporeality and the eternal power of intellect. What remains of us when the body is destroyed? Knowledge, experience - a tremendous power, and a curse at the same time, and a duty - to take care of the next generations that walk the same path, in an endless cycle of human development.
