Józef Klukowski (2 January 1894 – 29 April 1945) was a Polish sculptor. In 1932 he won a gold medal in the art competitions of the Olympic Games for his "Wieńczenie zawodnika" ("Sport Sculpture"). Four years later he won a silver medal in the art competitions of the Olympic Games for his "Piłkarze" ("Football").[1]
He took part in the Warsaw Uprising in 1944 and was killed on a transport from the Sachsenhausen concentration camp while being moved to Bergen-Belsen.[2][3]
