Constructed between 1880 and 1881, at an early stage of the evolution of Catalan Modernism, the building was the first in the Eixample district to integrate industrial typology and technology, combining exposed brick and iron, into the fabric of the city centre.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Museu T\u00e0pies takes a plural, interdisciplinary approach and aims to set up cooperative ventures with experts in different fields of learning to contribute to a better understanding of contemporary art and culture.

The Library specialises in modern and contemporary art. It also houses the largest archive on T\u00e0pies\u2019 work, collections on Asian and Pre-Columbian arts and culture as well as the arts of Africa and Oceania which have had such a great influence on the evolution of 20th century art. Other subjects, such as architecture, design, the decorative arts, photography, film and video are also represented. The initial core donated by Antoni T\u00e0pies has been enlarged with recent and historical publications and international videos and magazines, which help to swell an ever-increasing collection.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">[Image of the Museu Ta\u0300pies building, Barcelona. \u00a9 Photography: Roberto Ruiz, 2023.]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Museu T\u00e0pies was created in 1984 by the artist Antoni T\u00e0pies to promote the study and knowledge of modern [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"template_distribuidor.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.11 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The museum - Museu T\u00e0pies<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Fundaci\u00f3 Antoni T\u00e0pies is a modern art museum in Barcelona, Catalonia.
