A quarts de quatre… | Tribute Miralles
MIRALLES. A quarts of four… The Saló del Tinell exhibition presents four works designed and built over fifteen years: the Igualada cemetery, the Huesca sports pavilion, the Santa Caterina market in Barcelona and the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh. Each project, at the time of its construction, represented a key event in the evolution of his architecture, and, together, the four together make up the very essence of his work. We wanted to show them through Enric’s most personal documents -sketches, drawings, models and photographs-, trying to make them understandable to the general public, to whom this exhibition is mainly addressed.
It should be remembered that although this venue celebrates the artistic individuality of Enric Miralles, throughout his life he always projected together. It was a vital necessity for him to share work and study with his partners and collaborators. Thus, the Igualada cemetery project is signed with Carme Pinós; the Huesca pavilion with Carme Pinós, Robert Brufau and Agustí Obiol; the Santa Caterina market with Benedetta Tagliabue, and the Scottish Parliament with Benedetta Tagliabue and the Scottish studio RMJM.
