About this listen

Piotr Voelkel is one of the wealthiest Poles, the founder of the VOX Group and owner of the best non-public Uniwersity in Poland - SWPS. But instead of sitting on a pile of cash like Scrooge McDuck, he’s busy trying to change the world. He puts up iconic buildings, educates designers, sponsors exhibitions and backs young talent. What role plays art in his life? Why does he keep placing art installations in public space – and who is unhappy about it? How can you start collecting art yourself?


The project “Art in the City – a podcast about contemporary Polish art” is co‑financed from the funds of the National Recovery Plan under Investment A2.5.1.
