The sculptures were primarily created during public symposium events where artists worked on-site, allowing the public to watch the carving process.
The materials used are exclusively regional granite, chosen for its durability and historical significance to the Brittany coast.
The park is maintained as a permanent outdoor museum, with works remaining on-site indefinitely after their completion.
It represents a collaborative effort between the town of Perros-Guirec and local granite associations to promote stone craftsmanship.
The Parc des sculptures Christian Gad et Daniel Chhé features a collection of monumental sculptures carved directly from local pink granite. The park serves as an open-air exhibition space resulting from international sculpture symposia held in Perros-Guirec. It contains works by diverse artists, blending abstract and figurative aesthetics within a landscaped coastal environment. The granite used reflects the signature geology of the surrounding Côte de Granit Rose. The park is integrated into the town's cultural heritage trail, highlighting the intersection of artistic expression and regional natural resources. It is situated in close proximity to the historic Saint-Guirec area.
