The Fundaci\u00f3 Antoni T\u00e0pies<\/strong> is the museum dedicated to the great Catalan artist, in the heart of the Eixample<\/strong>, steps from Passeig de Gr\u00e0cia<\/a>. It occupies a Modernista building by Llu\u00eds Dom\u00e8nech i Montaner<\/strong> (the former Montaner i Sim\u00f3n publishing house), crowned by T\u00e0pies’s famous wire sculpture N\u00favol i cadira<\/strong> (“Cloud and Chair”). It holds more than 300 works<\/strong> by the artist and programmes temporary contemporary art exhibitions. It opens Tuesday to Sunday<\/strong> (closed Mondays). It’s a few metres from Casa Batll\u00f3<\/a>; metro Passeig de Gr\u00e0cia (L2\/L3\/L4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the heart of the Eixample, between Passeig de Gr\u00e0cia and Rambla de Catalunya, the Fundaci\u00f3 Antoni T\u00e0pies is a must for lovers of contemporary art and architecture. Created by Antoni T\u00e0pies himself in 1984 and opened to the public in 1990, it’s at once a museum, a study centre and a space for promoting modern and contemporary art. It holds one of the world’s most important collections of the artist and, like its neighbours on the Block of Discord, occupies a Modernista building that’s a work of art in itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\nOther museums in Barcelona\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
