  • Constructing Contemporary Nationhood in the Museums and Heritage Centres of Catalonia Colin Breen*, Wes Forsythe**, John Raven***
    170 Constructing Contemporary Nationhood in the Museums and Heritage Centres of Catalonia Colin Breen*, Wes Forsythe**, John Raven*** Abstract Geographically, Spain consists of a complex mosaic of cultural identities and regional aspirations for varying degrees of autonomy and independence. Following the end of violent conflict in the Basque country, Catalonia has emerged as the most vocal region pursuing independence from the central Spanish state. Within the Catalan separatist movement, cultural heritage sites and objects have been appropriated to play an intrinsic role in supporting political aims, with a variety of cultural institutions and state-sponsored monumentality playing an active part in the formation and dissemination of particular identity-based narratives. These are centred around the themes of a separate and culturally distinct Catalan nation which has been subject to extended periods of oppression by the varying manifestations of the Spanish state. This study addresses the increasing use of museums and heritage institutions to support the concept of a separate and distinctive Catalan nation over the past decade. At various levels, from the subtle to the blatant, heritage institutions are propagating a message of cultural difference and past injustice against the Catalan people, and perform a more consciously active, overt and supportive role in the independence movement. Key words: Catalonia, museums, heritage, identity, nationhood Across contemporary Europe a range of nationalist and separatist movements are again gaining momentum (Borgen 2010). From calls for independence in Scotland and the divisive politics of the Flemish and Walloon communities in Belgium, to the continually complicated political mosaic of the Balkan states, there are now a myriad of movements striving for either greater or full autonomy for their region or peoples.

  • Itinerario-Barcelona-5-Dias
    ITINERARIO POR BARCELONA PARA 5 DIAS: PRIMER DIA: Hay diversas tarjetas para usar los transportes públicos de la ciudad y que sirven para metro, bus, ferrocarriles de la Generalitat (unas líneas de metro que van a la parte alta de la ciudad) y el tranvía. En cualquier caso, como os aconsejo andar mucho, es preferible comprar la T-10 que es la que usan la mayoría de barceloneses. Son 10 viajes en todos los transportes mencionados y en cada viaje se pueden hacer transbordos gratuitos entre ellos en un espacio de hora y media. Este primer día nos vamos al Passeig de Gràcia, que comenzamos a subirlo desde la Plaça de Catalunya. Allí ya admiramos un edificio modernista en la esquina y no será el único. Subiendo el paseo comprobamos la estructura del eixample (el ensanche que unió la Barcelona medieval con los pueblos de los alrededores con una red de calles). En cada esquina hay un chaflán, es decir una esquina en ángulo cortado que permite a los conductores vislumbrar los que vienen por la calle perpendicular y al viandante admirar perfectamente las esquinas de los edificios. Dentro de cada manzana de casas existe un amplísimo patio, muchas veces más amplio que las calles (como veremos después en alguna de las casas que visitaremos) Más arriba podemos ver a la izquierda la llamada illa de la discordia (la manzana de la discordia), porque confluyen diversas casas modernistas de diversos arquitectos, que rivalizaban por erigir la casa más rompedora. En la esquina de Consell de Cent encontramos la casa Lleó Morera (el edificio de Loewe) y más arriba, en la misma manzana, las casas Ametller y Batlló.

  • 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 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.

  • El Descubrimiento De La Arquitectura Medieval: Josep Puig I Cadafalch
    LIBRO 3/10/11 18:04 Página 91 EL DESCUBRIMIENTO DE LA ARQUITECTURA MEDIEVAL: JOSEP PUIG I CADAFALCH MARÍA PILAR POBLADOR MUGA* Resumen: Cada página de la historia se escribe con la suma de diversos acon- tecimientos, protagonizados por muchas vidas anónimas y unos pocos persona- jes célebres; pero si tuviéramos que ilustrar cada capítulo con la biografía de alguien que haya merecido destacar, en el periodo de la transición del siglo XIX al XX, uno de ellos bien pudiera ser Josep Puig i Cadafalch. Mirar hacia atrás, hacia un pasado no tan lejano, resulta fascinante para intentar dibujar con nitidez el perfil de un hombre que representó, como pocos, los convulsos avatares de su tiempo, permitiendo conocer algo mejor una época tan apasionante y compleja como su propia trayectoria profesional. Palabras clave: Historiografía, Arquitectura, Edad Media, Josep Puig i Cadafalch. Summary: Each page of history is written with the sum of diverse events, sta- rred by a lot of anonymous lives and some famous characters; but if we have to illustrate each chapter with the biography of somebody that have deserved to stand out, in the period of the transition of 19th to the XXth century, one of them could be the catalan architect and historian Josep Puig i Cadafalch. Looking back to a past not so far, it results fascinating to try draw with accuracy the profile of a man that symbolizes as few ones, the convulsed vicissitudes of his time, allo- wing us to know slightly better such an exciting and complex epoch as his own professional path.
