A walk in the garden of two art collectors on La Palma

by r/e collection

Continuing our series on going for a walk, this week we visit La Palma, home of two collectors who have lived in America, Germany and Spain but now live on the Canary Islands off the north west coast of Africa. La Palma was a regular holiday destination for numerous members of the German Neo Expressionists, such as the Oehlen brothers, Meuser, Rückriem and Kippenberger. This was how one of the collectors came to know the islands, discovering his love for art on the island partly through meeting the artists here.

The garden of their house, which overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, is home to numerous, often site-specific sculptures and installations.
