Visions of Space - Antoni Gaudi: God's Architect

Logo for Visions of Space - Antoni Gaudi: God's Architect

Eminent art critic and broadcaster Robert Hughes presents an exploration of three of the world's most remarkable architects. In very different ways, each used their creations to express their response and society's response to the power of religion - Gaudi, the power of the state - Speers, and the power of the corporation - van der Rohe. Hughes examines the legend of Antoni Gaudi, whose buildings have left an indelible mark on the city of Barcelona. Despite his austerely religious lifestyle, Gaudi's innovative genius created some of the most soulful and expressive buildings ever seen.
