		In 1916 Polasek went to Chicago, and at the age of 31, became head of the Department of Sculpture at the Art Institute - a position he held until retirement in 1943.
		For many years, Polasek was known as the "Chicago" artist because he created monumental sculptures associated with buildings and green spaces in the city that have become visual landmarks.
		In 1961, Polasek established a private foundation committed to keeping his sculpture available for public display and requested that his studio, home and galleries be open to the public to encourage the study, appreciation, and furtherance of representational art.

		In correspondence with C. Frank Dunn, Lukeman claimed that the Polasek bust, being backlit, was impossible to copy in profile except in silhouette.
