  Sean Scully La Pedrera

  This exhibition dedicated to the celebrated contemporary artist Sean Scully is a unique opportunity to discover his powerful abstract compositions and his intense use of color. The exhibition is on display at La Pedrera and explores the multiple facets of his work, where geometries and chromatic nuances are in dialogue with Gaudí's unique architecture. A visual experience that combines modern art and historical heritage.

  Scully is one of the great names in contemporary abstraction and has developed an unmistakable pictorial language based on stripes, lines and color blocking that evoke both emotions and architectural structures. His artistic process, which combines overlapping layers of paint and a palette rich in transparency, creates a unique depth that generates a powerful impact.

  The exhibition brings together more than sixty works, including paintings, sculptures, watercolors, pastels and photographs, and offers a journey through more than six decades of artistic production. From his figurative beginnings in the 1960s to his characteristic minimalism of the 1970s and his current consolidation, the exhibition offers an insight into the evolution of a master of color and abstraction.

  As a special feature, a large-scale sculpture created for the occasion is on display in the courtyard of La Pedrera, emphasizing the dialogue between Scully's work and Gaudí's iconic building.
