Over the years Chilida's sculpture and especially the graphic work has grown on me. I am enthralled by his stark shapes and lines - are they maps, are they puzzles, are they code?
These are like parts of an unfinished journey, or wanderings around a new neighbourhood -
Both images are from a 2008 exhibition, which you can see here.A review of his 2003 exhibition at Yorkshire Sculpture Park says that his works "take us back to that initial aesthetic and reflective thrill that made us aware why we liked art in the first place."
I love the 'glyphs' of G W Bot - she is mostly a print maker but some of her glyphs are bronze wall pieces. Worth Googling.
