The Oma Forest
Where Art Meets Nature
Conceived by Basque artist Agustín Ibarrola beginning in 1982, the Oma Forest—also known as the Painted Forest or Bosque Animado—stands as one of the most remarkable examples of land art in Europe. Located in the heart of the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, the project transformed nearly 800 pine trees into an open-air museum of geometric patterns, figural illusions and vibrant colour. Ibarrola’s compositions were designed to be viewed from specific points in the forest, so that complete images emerge only when the visitor stands in the right place—an invitation to move, look closely and discover.

Manfred Gnädinger
The Hermit Artist
Manfred Gnädinger (1936–2002), known in Camelle as “Man” or “O Alemán de Camelle,” arrived on Galicia’s Costa da Morte in 1962 and never left. He lived in a 13m² hut by the ocean without electricity or running water, foraging for food and working every day on his open-air museum, O Museo do Alemán, where stones shaped by erosion, driftwood, marine bones, shells, sponges and coastal debris were arranged into sculptures that merged with the tides, changing with the light and the sea. Some of his works interacted directly with the water, shifting their appearance as the tide rose and fell. He built micro-environments enclosed by small palisades, covered by wild coastal vegetation, where the boundary between art and nature dissolved entirely. After the Prestige oil spill destroyed the museum and the beach he had tended for forty years, he died the following day.
