Overview
- The exhibition is on view at the Centro de Cultura Contemporánea Condeduque through 21 June 2026, representing Madrid’s most significant Chillida showcase since 1998.
- Curated by Alicia Vallina for Fundación Ibercaja, the presentation emphasizes drawings, prints, and maquettes as autonomous keys to understanding Chillida’s exploration of volume and void.
- The display assembles roughly a hundred works, with one report listing 102 pieces and another citing 78 works on paper alongside 20 sculptures.
- The selection spans his career from late‑1940s plasters such as Torso and Forma to models of monumental projects in materials including plaster, granite, alabaster, bronze, steel, and chamotte.
- Luis Chillida introduced the Madrid presentation with Fundación Ibercaja leaders after a Zaragoza showing, and the city’s mayor highlighted five existing public works including Sirena varada under the Juan Bravo bridge.
