The Hand - Punta del Estee, Uruguay



Really cool - it is "The Hand" - “The Hand”, as it has come to be popularly called, is a plastic work standing here since the summer of 1982, when the Chilean artist Mario Irrazábal was invited to take part in the 1st International Meeting of Modern Sculpture in the Open Air held in the City of Punta del Este. During that summer, the seafront turned into a kind of outdoor workshop where artists from various countries gathered and began to give shape to what they had in mind.
