The history of Catalan Modernist architecture is built upon the name of Antoni Gaudí, the genius inseparable from the city of Barcelona, whose Artwork and essence have transcended borders. ARTIKA presents Gaudí Up Close, a project that began to take shape more than a decade ago, with the aim of revealing some of the artist's most insightful facets, which, despite their historical significance, remained unknown to the public. "The Artwork is exhibited in a wooden sculpture-case featuring a handcrafted reproduction of one of the emblematic chimneys of Casa Milà (La Pedrera), known as the warriors." The case houses two volumes and an architect's portfolio that offer a unique and detailed view of the artist. A bilingual artist's book in Spanish and English, hand-numbered and limited to 4,998 copies, compiles previously unpublished material on the architect and reveals his most insightful facets—a legacy of extraordinary value. The Art Book allows you to admire 48 of Gaudí's drawings in their original size, revealing the most evocative, rich, surprising, and beautiful details of his universe. The Study Book offers a selection of previously unpublished articles on Gaudí by experts: architect and director of the Gaudí Chair, Juan José Lahuerta; architects Jordi Faulí and Chiara Curti; art historian Joan Aicart; and Dr. Mireia Freixa, who provides a detailed study of the drawings. The architect's portfolio reveals reproductions of three plans, with their conservation folds, of his major projects: a beautiful design for a pier (1876); the original project for the façade of Casa Milà (1906); and the first plan for the demonstration of the Sagrada Familia's visibility (1916).

With expressionistic brushstrokes, the depth of emotion is palpable in the colors, and Beethoven's intense gaze seems to penetrate the soul. Signed on the back and with a certificate of authenticity.

  • Nana Tonnellier - Espérance Renommée (2026)

    Nana Tonnellier is an artist who works with painting, collage, and animated imagery. After studying at Saint Charles University Paris I and the School of Fine Arts in Toulouse, she joined L'Usine de Toulouse in 1994, a live performance company where she trained in puppet and set design, skills she later incorporated into her work as an independent artist. Heavily influenced in her youth by the Old Masters, a passion fostered by her father, an amateur copyist, and by extracurricular classes at the Louvre from ages 8 to 13, she developed a pictorial investigation centered on the association of timeless images, revealing the chaos of our world permeated by invisible forces. Born in Paris in 1967, Nana Tonnellier lives and works in Cuq Toulza (Tarn, France). Nana Tonnellier - Espérance Renommée - 50x50 cm - 2026 - Collage and oil on canvas
