le chose du jour



EDUARDO CHILLIDA: A sculptor vasco that embodies his culture's contradictions, beauty, and persona.
His sculptures bear resemblances to rocks, yet the finite, sharp carvings made in them bring them out of the natural realm. These granite and steel sculptures can be found in the lush hills outside of San Sebastian, Spain. Situated on a perfectly rolling landscape, they fuse with the history of the countryside, weathering the same wind and rain, reflecting the same light and shadows that los vascos have for centuries.
