GAUDÍ'S BARCELONA


Antoni Gaudí i Cornet, the incredible architect, artist and designer was born in Catalonia (Spain) in 1852. Gaudí lived during the splendour of `Modernism´, the architectural and artistic movement in Catalonia that corresponded to `Art Nouveau´ in France and `Jugendstil´ in Germany.

Antoni Gaudí executed most of his works in the city of Barcelona, where he daringly explored a variety of building types and shapes, without the scope of his vision ever being restricted by site and epoch limitations.

The most famous, and must see, creations of Antoni Gaudí include: Parc Güell, Sagrada Familia, La Pedrera, and Casa Batlló.
