Tadeusz Wowkonowicz was an outstanding ski racer of the 1940s whose life was determined by three towns: Lwów (today’s Lviv in Ukraine), Zakopane and Chamonix. This exhibition, held on the centenary year of his birth, features items from his family’s archives in Chamonix and includes personal items, letters, and photographs which document Polish skiing in the 1940s, and was prepared by Dr. Leon Rak and Zbigniew Sokalski.
