Aundi III. 1970.

Printed by Arte, Paris. Published by Maeght Éditeur, Paris. [AR].
• Wonderful large-format print with a characteristic relief-like structure.
• The title “Aundi” is Basque, unmistakably related to the work, and translates as “big.”
• The play with abstract forms, the reduction to black, and the special materiality are what make Chillida's works on paper so appealing.
• His prints are in numerous international museum collections, such as the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Centre Pompidou, Paris, and the Museum Folkwang, Essen.
