Fundacion Tapies
Antoni Tapies created the Fundacio Antoni Tapies in 1984 to promote the study and knowledge of modern and contemporary art. The building of the Fundacio, which was constructed between 1880 and 1885, was the first in the Eixample district to integrate industrial typology and technology, combining exposed brick and iron, into the fabric of the city centre. It was built by the modernist architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner, restored and refurbished by the architects Roser Amadó and Lluís Domènech Girbau.
