• Resumen

  • During the summer of 2014, new life was injected into the auspicious squares and parks of the city centre of historic Barcelona by the Enric Miralles Foundation. This came in the form of celebrative temporary installations commissioned from teams, including among them Odile Decq, Yael Reisner and Peter Cook, Grafton Architects and Urban-Think Tank. Commemorating the 300th anniversary of the end of the siege of Barcelona, each group of collaborators was asked by the curators, architect Benedetta Tagliabue and theatre director Àlex Ollé, to create a structure that embodied a universal principle, such as diversity, democracy and identity. Benedetta Tagliabue describes the project.
