Gigant

Gigant - the giant, is a work of art in -polished steel that was created by the artist Daniele Basso for the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Ski World Cup in Alta Badia. The giant takes up the skier of the World Cup logo and symbolizes the sport of skiing. It is, above all, an acknowledgement to all the volunteers who contributed to the great and unique success of the Ski World Cup in Alta Badia.
The artwork was set up at the Piz La Ila mountain station where the descent to the famous Gran Risa slope begins.
