The title alludes to the estimation of Homo sapiens’ first appearance on earth approximately 130,000 years ago, the first hominid who inaugurated the use of burial grounds after grasping the fact of his own death. Lazkoz claims that, on the one hand, the piece is a kind of exorcism of personal fears and on the other, a free tribute to the classic painting of artists such as Sánchez-Cotán, from whom she borrows the resource of the geometric niche where the organic form rests.]]> http://www.guggenheim-bilbao.es//secciones/la_coleccion/nombre_obra_ficha_tecnica.php?idioma=en&id_obra=131
Snake, a work made for the inauguration of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, consists of three enormous, serpentine ribbons of hot-rolled steel that are permanently installed in the museum's largest gallery. The two tilted, snaking passages capture a rare sense of motion and instability. Snake is now joined by seven commissioned works-creating the installation entitled The Matter of Time-Serra's most complete rumination on the physicality of space and the nature of sculpture.

The Matter of Time enables the spectator to perceive the evolution of the artist's sculpted forms, from his relatively simple double ellipse to the more complex spiral. The final two works in this evolution are built from sections of toruses and spheres to create environments with differing effects on the viewer's movement and perception. Shifting in unexpected ways as viewers walk in and around them, these sculptures create a dizzying, unforgettable sensation of space in motion. The entirety of the room is part of the sculptural field: As with his other multipart sculptures, the artist purposefully organizes the works to move the viewer through them and their surrounding space. The layout of works in the gallery creates passages of space that are distinctly different-narrow and wide, compressed and elongated, modest and towering-and always unanticipated . There is also the progression of time. There is the chronological time it takes to walk through and view The Matter of Time, between the beginning and end of the visit. And there is the experiential time, the fragments of visual and physical memory that linger and recombine and replay.]]> http://www.guggenheim-bilbao.es//secciones/la_coleccion/nombre_obra_ficha_tecnica.php?idioma=en&id_obra=118

Klein's groundbreaking work, created over only about seven years, anticipated numerous tendencies including Happenings and performance, body art, land art, and aspects of Conceptual art. To this day it continues to exercise a lasting effect.]]> http://www.guggenheim-bilbao.es//secciones/programacion_artistica/nombre_exposicion_claves.php?idioma=en&id_exposicion=19 http://www.guggenheim-bilbao.es//secciones/actividades/actividad_reserva.php?idioma=en&id_actividad=508
