Eduardo Chillida, with his thrillingly Basque sensibility, is San Sebastián’s favoured artist. He is famous for his geometric sculptural pieces, made with rock, iron and other elemental materials. His recently re-opened museum outside of the city limits, Chillida Leku, exhibits the artist’s work as he intended, in a Basque farmhouse environment, stark against rolling green hills and distant mountains.
Insider tip: If you can’t make it out to the countryside, at least marvel at Chillida’s famous curved iron structures that branch out from the rocks at the end of Ondarreta beach, combing the wind as it whips from the ocean into the city.
