The Comb of the Winds

This is the most important and popular piece of art of the Spanish and Basque famous sculptor Eduardo Chillida. Belongs to an author’s style, a blend of informality, Minimalism and Land Art. It was created in 1977 as a set of three sculptures of steel embedded in the rocks of the sea. They are located on the Ondarreta promenade of Donosti city(Basque Country) where you can see the waves breaking on them.
