Thursday 18 June 2026 at 6pm this seminar will be given by Fransesc Fontbona de Vallescar, doctor in Modern History from the University of Barcelona. Modernisme disappears completely in the third decade of the 20th century, as had happened with art nouveau throughout Europe. Among the possible causes of the decline of the movement, it is necessary to consider the fact that it did not manage to solve the needs of standardization that modern industrial production demanded or the problem of social housing. The impact of the artistic avant-gardes of the early 20th century also conditioned new perspectives on creation (Nonell, Picasso, Gargallo…). Organized by: Aula Extensió Universitària (AEUR).
Location: Vallhonrat Auditorium Plaça Montserrat Roig, s/n. Free.
