Catalan Modernism and Vexillology
Catalan Modernism and Vexillology Sebastià Herreros i Agüí Abstract Modernism (Modern Style, Modernisme, or Art Nouveau) was an artistic and cultural movement which flourished in Europe roughly between 1880 and 1915. In Catalonia, because this era coincided with movements for autonomy and independence and the growth of a rich bourgeoisie, Modernism developed in a special way. Differing from the form in other countries, in Catalonia works in the Modern Style included many symbolic elements reflecting the Catalan nationalism of their creators. This paper, which follows Wladyslaw Serwatowski’s 20 ICV presentation on Antoni Gaudí as a vexillographer, studies other Modernist artists and their flag-related works. Lluís Domènech i Montaner, Josep Puig i Cadafalch, Josep Llimona, Miquel Blay, Alexandre de Riquer, Apel·les Mestres, Antoni Maria Gallissà, Joan Maragall, Josep Maria Jujol, Lluís Masriera, Lluís Millet, and others were masters in many artistic disciplines: Architecture, Sculpture, Jewelry, Poetry, Music, Sigillography, Bookplates, etc. and also, perhaps unconsciously, Vexillography. This paper highlights several flags and banners of unusual quality and national significance: Unió Catalanista, Sant Lluc, CADCI, Catalans d’Amèrica, Ripoll, Orfeó Català, Esbart Català de Dansaires, and some gonfalons and flags from choral groups and sometent (armed civil groups).

Modernist Movement
THE MODERNIST MOVEMENT MODERNIST ARCHITECTURE MODERNISMIN ARCHITECTURE AND THE INDUSTRIAL ARTS AND, CONSEQUENTLY, IN DESIGN, CAN BE CONSIDERED THE MOST IMPORTANT ARTISTIC MOVEMENT IN MODERN CATALAN CULTURE. THE MODERNIST MOVEMENT are not only important as architects but also for their extensive humanistic training. Although Gaudí had the same training, his circumstances were very dif- ferent from those of the others. Our study of this architectural movement must be seen as a debate with the central idea of Gaudí, of whom we spoke in the odernism in architecture and the first issue of this magazine, as a count- sought with faith and courage and industrial arts and, consequently, erpoint to the other two architects, without renouncing the past.

Costa Barcelona English
Costa Barcelona English Costa Barcelona L’Alt Penedès, El Baix Llobregat, El Garraf, El Maresme, El Vallès Occidental and El Vallès Oriental are the six regions that make up the Costa Barcelona tourism brand, an area which is defined and guided by its relationship with the sea but in which the land, plains, gentle mountain ranges and Mediterranean vegetation also form an essential part of life. Sea and mountain, cities and culture www.barcelonaesmoltmes.cat A fairly densely populated area, with numerous large cities and major transport routes, which also benefits from large expanses of lush natural landscape, as well as vineyards and other crops, and preserves numerous examples of cultural and religious heritage that stand as a testament to its long and rich history. The proximity to Barcelona has undoubtedly exerted an influence over the six regions in the past, as it continues to do today. However, each has its own unique identity, way of life and of doing things, its places of business, of leisure, commercial hubs, long-established festivals and cuisine to delight the palate, replete with local recipes and regional produce. An area that, on top of its summertime draw for those seeking sun and sea, has more than enough attractions to warrant a visit, short or long, all year round: Modernisme, or Catalan Art Nouveau, is found in abundance, be it in former summer residences, residential or industrial buildings; wine tourism, particularly in the regions of L’Alt Penedès and El Maresme (DO Alella); El Garraf, a region that tells us about those who went to make their fortunes in the Americas, Los Indianos, as well as the artists who gathered there a little over a century ago; towns where you can opt to kick back and relax or look to improve your health thanks to the spa waters found there; museums covering a wide variety of subject areas and first-rate music festivals; fairs; markets; conferences; and more. -

Petició Ciutadana Per a La Memòria Històrica I La Senyalització Dels Barris De Barraques De Barcelona
Petició ciutadana per a la memòria històrica i la senyalització dels barris de barraques de Barcelona Antecedents Els últims grans nuclis de barraques de Barcelona es van enderrocar poc abans dels Jocs Olímpics. La ciutat girava full a un episodi de la seva història que havia durat un segle. El rastre dels llocs on hi havia les barraques s'ha esborrat. On hi havia Can Valero i altres nuclis de barraques de Montjuïc, hi ha el Palau Sant Jordi i el Jardí Botànic. On hi havia el Camp de la Bota hi ha el Fòrum. A la zona que ocupava el gran barri del Somorrostro hi ha el Port Olímpic i les platges de la Barceloneta i de la Nova Icària. On hi havia la Perona hi ha el parc de Sant Martí i s‟hi construeix la nova estació de l‟AVE de la Sagrera. Només en alguns indrets del Carmel i al turó de la Rovira hi queden vestigis de les barraques. Però la memòria no ha desaparegut en els milers de persones que van viure aquella realitat, en alguns casos durant molts anys. Ells i els seus familiars, habitants dels nous barris de la ciutat, són una part important de la ciutadania de Barcelona. Alguns han preferit oblidar uns anys difícils, però per molts aquella experiència forma part de la seva vida i també de la vida de la ciutat. Creuen que no s'ha d'oblidar el passat. Del juliol del 2008 a l‟abril del 2009, el Museu d‟Història de Barcelona va presentar l‟exposició “Barraques.
