A fruitful visual dialogue between Chillida, his contemporaries and the art dealer who uplifted their idiosyncratic visions
On the occasion of the centennial of Basque sculptor Eduardo Chillida (1924-2004), Maeght Universe forges a dialogue between Chillida and some of the other artists with whom the historic art dealer Aim? Maeght (1901-81) and his wife, Marguerite, supported: Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Pablo Palazuelo, Georges Braque, Julio Gonz?lez, Jean Arp, Barbara Hepworth, Antoni T?pies, Joan Mir? and Marc Chagall.
The 17 works presented belong to the Fondation Maeght, whose collection of sculptures is one of the most significant in the world. Maeght encouraged the form's evolution throughout the 20th century, championing modernist artists with distinct, and often contentious, visions. Texts by Isabelle Maeght (the daughter of Aim? and Marguerite), Ingnacio Chillida (the son of Eduardo) and Juan Kruz Igerabide, a Basque arts writer, elaborate on the dual legacy of the sculptor and his dealer.
