June 21, 2007 Ganada/Torremolinos, Spain


In my eyes it did have modern architecture but more medieval. It is still being worked on, it looks like a castle that you would see in a snowglobe. I think Gaudi breaks with many traditions in Spain and he does an incrediable job with his work.
This church of Gaudi is what the Effle Tower is to Paris, France, of course, this is the church for Barcelona, Spain.The color glass for the windows, the picutres you have with the tile, the stature of clay he has on top, outside of the church.
All of Gaudi's work you will see the he's an expressionist; he shows details in his work. In Spain you can find his work that is absoulutly outstanding and to know how long it took to carve something or how long it took from begining to end, it's just remarkable.
Gaudi's work is known all around the world to be in Barcelona, Spain and he broke in tradition in order to propose a new way of understanding architecture in terms of the the application of geometry.
