Chillida.

Paris; Maeght Editeur, 1971. 29x29 cm. 206, (1, 1 blank) pp. Illustrated in colour and b&w. Publisher's linen with printed dustjacket. The jacket has a tear on front panel close to the top corner, and a small piece of the lamination has come off on top of rear panel. The book is fine. Inscribed by Chillida: "For Arne Annmo / [?] / Paris 19--5--72". Annmo (1922-2007) was a Swedish local politician in Lund, and one of the driving forces behind the order and placing of Chillida's sculpture "Campo espacio de paz" [The Field of Peace] on the city square in Lund (1972). It is depicted on p. 156 in the book, designated as a project started in 1968, but still without a name. The sculpture, which is formed by six diabase blocks with an open space in the middle where peace is symbolically imprisoned, remains, according to the artist, unfinished until there is peace in the world, at which point a certain block will be removed and thus opening the sculpture.
