The city of Barcelona has been known since the early twentieth
century as the home of Art Nouveau. Now it has also become a center
for contemporary international architecture. This follow-up to "In
Detail: Barcelona Art Nouveau" looks at the most notable buildings
of the last 10 years, with detailed photographic reports on Josep
Llums Mateo's Barcelona Convention Center, Richard Meier's Museum
of Contemporary Art, Carles Ferrater's Botanical Gardens and
Institute, Rafael Moneo's Barcelona Auditorium concert hall, Herzog
& de Meuron's Forum Building, Josep Llins's block of buildings
in the Fort Pienc neighborhood, EMBT's Santa Caterina Market,
Clotet & Paricio's Forum-area retirement home and Jean Nouvel's
Agbar Tower. The complexity of this new generation of structures,
and the variety of local and international talent on view, are
auspicious signs for the Barcelona of the twenty-first century.
