Immersive exhibition “Beyond the Façade”

“Beyond the Façade” is the new immersive exhibition inaugurating Casa Batlló Contemporary, the space dedicated to contemporary art on the second floor of Gaudí’s iconic building.

About this event

Conceived by United Visual Artists, the London studio led by Matt Clark, the project invites visitors to look beyond the façade and delve into the rhythms, geometry and invisible tensions running through the architect’s work.

Through light, sound and movement, the exhibition reinterprets Gaudí’s radical legacy with a contemporary sensibility, establishing a dialogue between nature, science and perception. The experience is conceived as a sequence of situations that unfold over time rather than a traditional route, with visitors becoming part of the space and its transformations.

United Visual Artists has an internationally recognised track record at institutions such as the Serpentine Gallery, the Victoria & Albert Museum and the Barbican, and has collaborated with creators in fields as diverse as music, choreography and scientific research. In Beyond the Façade, this cross-disciplinary approach serves a contemporary reading of Gaudí, revealing hidden structures and organic patterns that continue to engage with the present.
