I think Gaudi made a new step when putting a museum in Spain because it was like a new Gaudi. The color and tile that he used, the stone and mortar and the different designs is a new tradition. Having it done in Spain has inspired people, and it gives a new meaning to me. I think with having the museum put up, it means Gaudi still has his unique talent.

Since I was young, I thought it would be cool as a hobby to be an artist, but because of Gaudi and his work, I realized it doesn´t mean just painting. With Gaudi, it´s a new modern art, a different interesting way to have people understand and relate. What I love the most is when you know what the design or painting is about and you find it amazing how out of a story or a certain event a creation was made.

So yes I do think Gaudi has started a tradition in Spain.

Gaudi´s art work is like no other. He´s unique and talented. His work can be seen in several places; he´s known for the designs in the chimneys, balconies, and other architecture. In the 1800s many writers came together and they came up with what is known as ¨The Generation of ´98.¨Franscio Giner de los Rios was wanting to give free education via a school that was known for liberal, secular, and European. Thinking the school had to be divided into Catholics and liberals; it was another obstical to adjust to.

Around the early 1900s there was something called ¨Tragic Week¨in Barcelona. General strikes were increased, barricades were torn up, bombs were being thrown, and churches and convents were badly damaged. During the 1930s, Franscio Franco was the one to form a one-armed Gerneral Millan Astray. There were many crimes from rape to murder and torture; the majority of these crimes were done by the Moors. With so much chaos going on, by the time they knew it the Spainish Civil War had began.
