Risking her career\, financial disaster\, and further alienation from her family\, she flees to Spain with the painting to consult art experts. \nAttribution is a historical puzzle combined with the story of one contemporary woman’s journey to understand the past and unlock her future. \n  \nPlease save your spot by Wednesday\, February 8\, by clicking on this link.

SUMMARY:Members’ Preview: Eduardo Chillida
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, August 1\n10:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. \n  \nMembers get early access! Be among the first to see this monumental exhibition.\nMembers are invited for a first look at Eduardo Chillida: Convergence. A visionary artist\, Eduardo Chillida’s body of work is closely linked to the landscape and traditions of his Basque Country homeland in northern Spain and frequently invokes the earth\, sea\, wind\, and light\, as well as his inspirations from music\, philosophy\, and architecture. The most comprehensive survey of Chillida’s work in North America in nearly half a century\, this exhibition encompasses the full range of the artist’s practice\, including works on paper and sculptures created from forged iron\, oak\, alabaster\, and clay. Each of these creations are points of convergence where myriad forces\, including nature and culture\, material and immaterial\, form and void\, all meet. \nEduardo Chillida: Convergence is on view at The San Diego Museum of Art from August 2\, 2025\, through February 8\, 2026. The exhibition is accompanied by a full-color catalog that can be purchased at The Museum Store. \n  \nThe Members’ Preview will be held on Friday\, August 1\, from 10:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.\n \nTimed entry tickets are required for this member benefit event.
