Exhibition «Francesc Vidal i Jevellí at Palau Güell. Interiors and furniture»
The exhibition «Francesc Vidal i Jevellí en el Palau Güell. Interiores y muebles» offers a look into the domestic world of Palau Güell, dwelling on the elements that shaped its interior spaces. Beyond architecture, the exhibition focuses on the original furniture and on the conception of the interior as an essential part of the modernist project.
About this event
The tour is structured around the figure of Francesc Vidal i Jevellí, one of the great drivers of the furniture industry in late 19th-century Barcelona. His work, closely linked to Eusebi Güell and Antoni Gaudí, makes it possible to understand how furniture design engaged in dialogue with architecture to build a coherent idea of space.
The exhibition reveals the extent to which the interiors of Palau Güell were not an addition, but an extension of the architectural language. Materials, forms and details make up a whole in which each piece responds to a vision shared by creator, patron and industrialist.
Through this approach, the exhibition invites visitors to rediscover modernism from within, paying attention to the objects that made it inhabitable.
