THREE POINTS ABOUT GAUDI
nineteenth century approach
creativity
rational medievalism
1GAUDI’S NINETEENTH CENTURY APPROACH
stylistic eclecticism
bold use of colour and texture
nationalism
naturalism
influenced by the standard nineteenth century writers, probably Ruskin and Morris, and certainly Viollet-le-Duc
2GAUDI’S CREATIVITY
historical sources are transfused with a new life
colour and texture exceed that of Butterfield &c
nationalism goes beyond the Catalan Gothic Revival
naturalism - evokes fundamental biological structures and geological forms
3RATIONAL MEDIEVALISM
Viollet wanted a Gothic architecture designed as he thought medieval designers WOULD have done if they had iron
Gaudi did NOT use structural iron, steel or reinforced concrete
Gaudi used traditional brick and stonemasonry, and board vaults
Gaudi designed as medieval designers COULD have done if they had used angled struts, parabolic arches and warped
surfaces
