To pay tribute to the artist Eduardo Chillida, the CHILLIDA Collection has been created on the basis of a chronological selection of his work: Figura Humana - 1948, Dibujo Tinta - 1957 and Collage - 1966, are pieces that reflect the gestation process of his famous sculpture: Peine del Viento located in San Sebastián.
Gravitación Tinta - 1991, Gravitación - 1994, Gravitación Tinta - 1996 and Gravitación - 1997 are inspired by the Gravitaciones series. By hanging different types of paper, Eduardo achieves a dramatic effect in the way the fragments of paper overlap or interleave, in turn creating spaces of light and shadow between them. By playing with ancestral techniques, different fibres and heights, the suspension Chillida was looking for was reflected in these different models.
As for the Preguntas - 1994 model, it is taken from one of the pages of his famous book "Preguntas". For Eduardo, questions were more meaningful than the most brilliant answers. In this book, he asks universal questions, unknowns that arise from the depths of the individual soul but resonate throughout humanity. These questions sum up the common human experience, eternal and unlimited in its expression.
"Art is linked to what has not yet been made, to what has not yet been created. It is something outside of you, in the future, something to look for." Eduardo Chillida
The work of Eduardo Chillida (1924-2002) represents one of the greatest artistic achievements of the late 20th century. Chillida's artistic nuances have been faithfully reproduced in the carpets, all of which are handmade using different techniques and fibres, such as wool, silk and hand-spun mohair, to create different textures, thus highlighting the essence of his work.
Please note Carpets longer than 2 m cannot be returned. We therefore advise you to ask for samples before ordering in order to confirm your choice. The deposit will be refunded on return of the samples.

Eduardo Chillida
With pieces in more than 20 museums across the world, and countless exhibitions celebrating his work throughout the years, Eduardo Chillida was a celebrated and prolific artist.
Born in San Sebastian, he began his life work in Paris, producing sculptures. Yet it would be a few years later, back in Spain, when he would discover the beauty of working with iron.
Public works were an important part of his artistic career, with more than 40 sculptures standing in different locations around the world. In 1972 he created “Lugar de Encuentros III”, today located on Madrid’s Paseo de la Castellana; the “Campo Espacio de Paz” in Lund, Sweden; and “Elogio de la Arquitectura II” in Palma de Mallorca. In 1973, his “Estela a Pablo Neruda” was erected in Tehran. It was in 1976 that the “Comb of the Wind XV” was installed in San Sebastian. Chillida would garner almost every award in existence for his work, and died in 2002 without seeing the completion of his great dream, the Tindaya Project, a public monument in the heart of the mountains.
