The paper provides a description of how the sculpture gallery originated in Poraj, Pom- erania, a culturally barren land in the post-state farm environments, in the vicinity of Łeba, the local tourist hub of popular entertainment. It began with the donation of sculptures from the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk by Marcin Plichta, Tomasz Radziewcz, Tomasz Skórka, Tomasz Sobisz and Mateusz Stankiewicz. The gallery soon expanded after the works of other Gdańsk artists had been gifted. These included the sculptures by the acknowledged Sławoj Ostrowski and by the debutant, Mariusz Burdek. All the same, most of the exhibits in the Park of Poraj have been created during the outdoor sculpture events since 2009, attended by Christos Mandzios from Wrocław, Anna Szalast from Warsaw, Tomasz Sobisz, Rafał Synowiec from Lębork, Jan Tutaj from Cracow, Mariusz Białecki from the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk, Michał Rosa from Ustka, Jarosław Pajek from Orońsko and Marek Rogulus – Rogulski from Gdańsk. Thus, apart from hosting figural park sculptures, the gallery also includes abstract works corresponding with the settings in both form and substance, as well as envir- onmental arrangements and effects of artistic actions. Since the gallery operations also include educational and disseminating activities, the space sculpting theme is not limited to the physical area occupied by art, but also dwells in the mental area of spectators’ awareness, particularly with regard to members of the local community. It can be interpreted as an extension of Joseph Beuys’s concept of social sculpture, according to which every individual can arrange their surroundings, environs, etc. In this case, an open sculpture gallery affects the space and the thinking process, both physically and symbolically [trans. J. Przybył].
