One of the foremost American sculptors of the 20th century, Polasek was born in what is now the Czech Republic. He achieved international recognition before selecting Winter Park as his retirement home in 1950. As featured in this Winter Park History Museum exhibit, Polasek became an influential figure in the city’s growing art community. 



He created a home, studio, and sculpture gardens on Lake Osceola. His vision continues today through the Albin Polasek Museum &amp; Sculpture Gardens and the ongoing cultural impact of the Museum and the Winter Park Paint Out.
