(*) Eduardo Chillida was born in San Sebastián (Guipúzcoa) in 1924. In 1947, he created his first pieces. For two years (1948-1950), he lived in France, where he exhibited for the first time. Upon returning to the Basque Country, he settled in Hernani, where he made his first iron work, 'Ilarik' (1951), a material he would work with for ten years. Around 1960, he returned to large granite sculptures. His first exhibition was held in Madrid in 1954; quickly, works and successes followed. He was one of the 30 creators who used fragments of the Berlin Wall as a canvas. From 1996, he was part of the advisory artistic committee of the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum. He was one of the leading figures of the contemporary Spanish scene alongside Tàpies, Miró, Oteiza, Saura, Palazuelo, Millares, among others. He saw his dream of having an outdoor museum come true. He died in his hometown in 2002.
