Outdoor sculptures that are designed to be viewed in vendaval—strong, gusty winds—often incorporate dynamic elements that come alive with movement. These artworks are not only visually striking but also interact with nature in unique ways. Here are some of the most famous examples:

1. The Wind Sculptures of Anthony Howe – Known for his kinetic wind sculptures, Howe’s creations, like "Omniverse," are mesmerizing metallic structures that rotate and shimmer in the wind, creating hypnotic patterns.

2. "The Knotted Gun" (Non-Violence) by Carl Fredrik Reuterswärd – While not kinetic, this iconic sculpture in New York gains symbolic power when viewed against the backdrop of swirling winds, emphasizing its message of peace.

3. "Windwand" by Len Lye – A towering, flexible pole that sways gracefully in the wind, this New Zealand installation celebrates the beauty of natural forces.

4. "The Singing Ringing Tree" (Panopticons) in England – A wind-powered sound sculpture that produces eerie, melodic tones as the wind passes through its pipes.

5. "The Weather Project" by Olafur Eliasson – Though primarily an indoor installation, its outdoor-inspired design plays with light and air, making it a conceptual cousin to vendaval sculptures.

These sculptures demonstrate how art can harmonize with the elements, transforming wind into a collaborator in their aesthetic impact.
