Architecture, together with the applied arts, constituted the most unique and valued form of expression of Modernisme, both in terms of civic and industrial construction. A style where the curve predominates on the straight, the asymmetry, the decoration detail with the use of plant, natural and female figures. Modernist architecture in Catalonia means, on the one hand, the modernization of construction techniques (use of iron in structures, use of prefabricated elements), while conserving traditional elements (buildings with brickwork) and linking them with Gothic style with which it has a certain parallelism. It is a decorative, integrative architecture in the building of all the plastic arts. The Barcelona Pass Modernista has been designed to give visitors a greater insight into the Catalan art nouveau, Modernisme, away from the major landmarks. It will help to discover the least-known works of the world- renowned architects and other gems of this artistic movement. The card is valid for seven days and includes free admission to a number of buildings in Barcelona and its surrounding towns, easily accessible with public transport. The Barcelona Pass includes skip the line access to the following iconic buildings: Casa Amatller Casa de les Punxes Casa Vicens Palauet Casadas (on Mondays) Biblioteca Arús (on Tuesdays) Palau Baró de Quadras (on Wednesdays) Casa Rocamora (on Thurdsays) Casa Felip (on Fridays) Palau de la Música Catalana Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau Casa Museu Domènech i Montaner (in Canet de Mar) Casa Coll i Regàs (In Mataró) Cau Ferrat (In Sitges) mNACTEC (Museum of Catalan Science and Technology) (In Terrassa) Casa Alegre de Sagrera (In Terrassa) What’s included: Skip the Line to access to all the architectural masterworks included for a total value of 169€ The Barcelona Pass Modernista is valid for 7 days Guidebook in 4 Languages (Catalan, Spanish, English and French) Validity: Prices to the Public (21% VAT included) from 1st January to the 31st December 2020 Pass Barcelona Pass Modernista 90€ Exchange Point: FREE SALE: 10% Commission for the Travel Trade Turisme de Barcelona’s Information Offices (Check the list on this page OR Map) HOLA BARCELONA Unlimited Public Transportation Unlimited usage of public transportation: Barcelona Metro and City Buses run by TMB, FGC, Tramway, Barcelona Airport Train and Renfe Suburban Trains in Zone 1 (the metropolitan area of Barcelona).

  • 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). New Banner, Basilica of the Monastery of Santa Maria de Ripoll Proceedings of the 24th International Congress of Vexillology, Washington, D.C., USA 1–5 August 2011 © 2011 North American Vexillological Association (www.nava.org) 506 Catalan Modernism and Vexillology Background At the 20th International Conference of Vexillology in Stockholm in 2003, Wladyslaw Serwatowski presented the paper “Was Antonio Gaudí i Cornet (1852–1936) a Vexillographer?” in which he analyzed the vexillological works of the Catalan architectural genius Gaudí.

The old walls were demo- lished in 1854, and a new city sprang up. The emerging bourgeoise, enriched thanks in parti- cular to the textile sector, was looking for ways to show off its power. This was a golden age for the architects, the real protagonists of Mo- dernisme, who broadened horizons and excer- cised their skills in other fields.

  • 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.
