The museum will present a large video installation at the Sala Oval (Barcelona, 1943). Created in New York City between 1980 and 1982, From the center is a fundamental work both in the artist’s career and in the history of video art. This work of great technical complexity and rich in meaning evokes the great megalithic monuments of antiquity, is an electronic "Stonehenge", in the words of the artist. Due to its quality and importance in the historical perspective of Catalan contemporary art, the Generalitat has recently acquired it for the National Collection of Contemporary Art and is already part of the MNAC collections.
The twelve monoliths in a circle form a large transient panorama and offer a total of partial visions that, as a whole, represent a unique and complete contemplation of the world. The filming of all the images was made over two years from a single fixed point on the roof of a building in the center of Manhattan, on the Broadway corner of the Grand St. George. The sounds and music of each of the twelve channels were created by the artist, musician and sound pioneer Peter Van Riper (1942-1998). The sum of the twelve video and sound channels generate an intense and complex space.

Sagrada Familia

Best Things to Do

dds***ft

Sagrada Familia is still a place worth visiting. If you don&#39;t enter the church, you may only have the impression that the exterior is like overlapping mountains. From the inside, you can feel the light coming in through the colored glass. This building is multi-layered. Our visit happened to be on Sunday, and daily worship was going on in the hall in the basement. The underground corridor also has a very detailed design and historical introduction. I didn&#39;t buy a ticket to go upstairs, and it seems that I took the elevator up. After that, I went to Caramel Mountain and enjoyed the panoramic view of Barcelona.

It was very hot, but there were a lot of tourists. Although the ticket was 11 o&#39;clock, the ticket inspector didn&#39;t look at the time. We were actually half an hour early, but the use of the control did have advantages to avoid tourists. Because of the visit to Sagrada Familia and the Palace of G&uuml;l, so a little understanding of Gaudi&#39;s design style, basically the same structure and characteristics, in short, a good experience.

When you come to Barcelona, you must punch in the Gaudi three-piece suit. The double ticket bought on Trip.com also sent a limited edition of the Bartero House poker card. The city of architecture is indeed the city of architecture. Dream Gaudi should be the biggest harvest of this time.

Looking at Picasso&#39;s works again, I suddenly understood. The primitive, bold and strong things deeply attracted me and stimulated my sensory nerves! Picasso used various painting methods to express his own emotions casually. Basically, it was not purely aesthetic, but rational and abstract. He reconstructed and combined objects to bring people newer and deeper feelings!
