1974
Discovers Malpartida de Cáceres
He visits the village of Malpartida de Cáceres in Extremadura and the nearby rocky landscape of Los Barruecos: the bizarre granite boulders remind him of his own concrete sculptures, and he declares the place a “work of art of nature”. In the midst of this “surreal” landscape stands the 18th-century Lavadero de Lanas, and Vostell resolves to create a “meeting place of art, life and nature” here.
