Metal Untxia is a little garden for strolling around and enjoying.
Situated near the Guggenheim Museum, it dialogues with Jeff Koons' flower dog and Louis Burgeois' spider.
Viewed from La Salve Bridge, the garden is full of vivid colours and is shaped like a rabbit; a rabbit that transports us far away, to the Chinese calendar, where 2011 is the year of the metal rabbit.
It will only last a few months...so it belongs to this year.
