9. Peter Stanford: Gaudí – God’s Architect
Antoni Gaudí’s architecture is among the world’s most instantly recognisable sights. Yet 100 years after his death, much about this unworldly genius remains a mystery. In a new biography, Peter Stanford reconnects Gaudí’s peerless architecture with the highs and lows of his Christian faith, retracing the architect’s life through the buildings, parks and landscapes he admired and created. Join him on Gaudí’s journey from the Catalan countryside to the booming industrial city of Barcelona, following a life marked by periods of tragedy, loss, depression and a deep conviction that his art was a religious vocation.
Presented in partnership with All Saints Ilkley.
