The BitterSweet End to Sketching in Barcelona

The past few weeks we were given a sketching assignment and we had to go out into the city and sketch certain areas.  Here are the four assignments I chose to do!  
 


This is MNAC and the focus was on the procession.  Plaza de Espanya leads you up to a grand entrance with stairs and ramps to give the viewer with feelings of importance.  


Fundacio Joan Miro is a contemporary building on top of MontJuic.  The focus of this study lied in the circulation of the building and how the glassy, bright spaces, circulate you through the museum.


CCCB is a project that incorporates the new into the old.  A contemporary glass box is inserted into an existing building and the glass box creates a circulation tower for the exhibits.



MACBA is a building conceived by Richard Meier and exhibits contemporary art.  The building is an interconnection of geometries and those geometries determine the entry sequence.
