Eduardo Chillida's wish to share his work led to the creation of the Chillida-Leku Museum, a special place where he could exhibit his most cherished pieces of art and convey the essence of his work. Today, this legacy is the Museum's reason for existence. It is the vehicle by which the sculptor is able to continue to share his life's work and thoughts with the public.
 
The policy of the Chillida-Leku Museum is based on a commitment to the coherent and scrupulous representation of the life and work of Eduardo Chillida in the particularly complex context of contemporary Basque art.
 
The Chillida-Leku collection comprises 391 sculptures and over 300 works on paper, including "gravitations", engravings and drawings. The collection includes all of the works from the Permanent and Temporary Exhibitions.
