Todo aquel que hoy da pasee por Barcelona, tropezar a cada paso con el arquitecto Antoni Gaud, cuyas obras no cesan de atraer a los amantes del arte de todo el mundo. El artista realiz casi todas sus creaciones en la Ciudad Condal: Residencias para burgueses adinerados, el parque Gell (en la actualidad abierto al pblico) y la famosa iglesia en honor a la Sagrada Familia (comenzada hace un siglo, hoy todava sin concluir). La vida de Gaud est llena de contradicciones. Si bien en sus aos jvenes se adhiere al movimiento nacionalista cataln, adoptando una posicin anticlerical, dedicar los ltimos aos de su vida a la construccin de una sola iglesia. Mientras que en su juventud se siente deslumbrado por la vida de la alta sociedad y gusta de aparecer como un dandy, un espritu autnticamente espartano regir su existencia en la vejez. Gaud permaneci soltero y se entreg con cuerpo y alma a su arte, la arquitectura. Sus edificios se hicieron famosos, como un refrescante oasis en el desierto de la arquitectura funcional, como piedras preciosas engarzadas en los grises bloques de edificios. El mismo es considerado como el Dante de la arquitectura. En este libro se presenta la personalidad y la obra de Gaud en su totalidad, todo ello documentado con abundante material grfico.

Gaudí. La obra completa (Spanish Edition)

The life of Antoni Gaudí (1852-1926) was full of complexity and contradictions. As a young man he joined the Catalonian nationalist movement and was critical of the church; toward the end of his life he devoted himself completely to the construction of one single spectacular church, La Sagrada Familia. In his youth, he courted a glamorous social life and the demeanor of a dandy. By the time of his death in a tram accident on the streets of Barcelona his clothes were so shabby passersby assumed he was a beggar. Gaudí's incomparable architecture channels much of this multifaceted intricacy. From the shimmering textures and skeletal forms of Casa Batlló to the Hispano-Arabic matrix of Casa Vicens, his work merged the influences of Orientalism, natural forms, new materials, and religious faith into a unique Modernista aesthetic. Today, his unique aesthetic enjoys global popularity and acclaim. His magnum opus, the Sagrada Familia, is the most-visited monument in Spain, and seven of his works are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Through brand-new photography, plans and drawings by Gaudí himself, historical photos, as well as an appendix detailing all his works--from buildings to furniture, decor to unfinished projects--this book presents Gaudí's universe like never before. Like a personal tour through Barcelona, we discover how the "Dante of architecture" was a builder in the truest sense of the word, crafting extraordinary constructions out of minute and mesmerizing details, and transforming fantastical visions into realities on the city streets.
