Description

Catalonia: A Guide to Modern Architecture 1880-2007 fills the gap that used to exist for Catalan territory. In recent years, numerous guides have been published about specific regions of this territory, with particular attention to Barcelona. At present, the identity and scope of this territory is the subject of political debate and struggle, marked furthermore by strong cultural implications, which consequently have a direct affect on the phenomenon of architecture itself. This guide identifies the culture of modern architecture as manifested in recent decades, since the emergence of the innovations associated with Modernisme, the Catalan Art Nouveau.

Ordered by geographic routes, this guide compiles thorough plans and photographs, the 417 most outstanding architectural works in Catalunya, from Modernisme until todays contemporary architecture.
