César Manrique: Wind Toys
Visitors to Lanzarote marvel at the incredible giant mobiles – or wind toys – that are sited in various spots around the island.
Created by island born artist and architect César Manrique these large scale sculptures - containing interweaving, moving elements – epitomise his core philosophy of fusing art with nature. As whilst all of these pieces make a big impact when stationary, they really come to life with the assistance of the wind.
Smaller wind toys can also be spotted in a number of locations around the resort of Costa Teguise, such as by the golf course and at the main beach of Playa Cucharas.
