Antoni Gaudi

Antoni Plàcid Guillem Gaudí i Cornet oli katalonialainen arkkitehti ja katalonialaisen modernismin tärkein edustaja. Tyylihistoriallisesti hänet luokitellaan art nouveaun ja orgaanisen arkkitehtuuriin edustajaksi, mutta hän kehitti huomattavan omaperäisen ja jopa surrealistisen arkkitehtonisen muotokielen.
