Driving around on Lanzarote you can't miss the art works made by local artist and architect César Manrique (1919-1992). Several roundabouts have spectacular wind sculptures that make you want to stop and look, and study them to find out how clever they are. The one above gently moves forwards and backwards in the breeze..
..and here everything just turns around in both directions; so not just in the direction the winds blows but actually in opposite directions.
...BIG and fun!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI should think it would be hard to concentrate on driving with those great, colourful machines whirring around. We just have wind turbines.
