Pietrasanta — Mitoraj's Creative Home
Pietrasanta, a small Tuscan city near Lucca, has been the world capital of marble sculpture for centuries, hosting workshops that have served Michelangelo, Henry Moore, and Fernando Botero. Mitoraj first visited in the late 1970s and established his studio there in 1983; in 1987 he acquired a large atelier that became the Atelier Mitoraj — the official foundation overseeing his estate and archive. The town's foundries and marble yards gave Mitoraj access to unparalleled craftsmanship, and many of his most important works were realised in collaboration with local artisans. He is buried in Pietrasanta's cemetery. The Atelier Mitoraj remains the primary authority on authenticity, provenance, and posthumous edition documentation.
