"The exhibition is meant to portray him as the complete artist that he was. An artist who did not limit himself to architecture and buildings and who scrupulously attended to the smallest of details. One that had to get the colours of his ceramic tiles just right and fit his building with practical solutions to make life comfortable and good for their residents, complete with plenty of light, air, and greenery". Such are the main precepts of the exhibition scheduled to open on 5 March at the Zamek (Castle) Cultural Centre. Its displays will be filled with the designs, drawings, furniture replicas and more from Antoni Gaudí, one of the most remarkable architects of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
