Barcelona, Magic Fountain of Montjuic
Made by Klaus Dolle
View On Black And Large (Explore) (89) La Fuente Mágica de Montjuic La inauguración de la fuente mágica de Montjuic tuvo lugar el 19 de mayo de 1929, durante la Exposición Internacional de Barcelona. El diseñador Carles Buigas envió los planos un año antes de la exposición y muchos pensaron que el proyecto era demasiado ambicioso para ser creado y muchos menos creían que fuera a finalizarse para la fecha en que comenzaba la Exposición. Más de 3000 trabajadores estuvieron a cargo del proyecto y, tras menos de 1 año, la fuente mágica estaba terminada. La fuente mágica es una espectacular exhibición de color, luz, movimiento, música y acrobacias acuáticas. Si mezclas todos estos elementos y los combinas correctamente ¡obtienes magia pura! La fuente mágica es un espectáculo “obligado” y altamente recomendado si vienes a Barcelona. Magic Fountain of Montjuic The inauguration of Magic Fountain of Montjuic took place on May 19, 1929, during the International Exhibition of Barcelona. The designer Carles Buigas sent the planes a year before the exhibition and many thought that the project was too ambitious to be created and far fewer thought they were finished for the day on which the exhibition began. More than 3000 workers were in charge of the project and, after less than 1 year, the source Magic finished. The magic source is a spectacular display of color, light, movement, music and acrobatics waterfowl. Combining all these elements and combines them correctly you get pure magic! The source is a magic show obligatory and highly recommended if you come to Barcelona.


Mies in perspective II, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Barcelona Pavilion
Made by JuanVan
Interior of the Barcelona Pavilion. This was the German Pavilion for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona. Architect: Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969). Location: Barcelona, Spain. The pavilion was disassembled in 1930. The architects Ignasi de Solà-Morales, Cristian Cirici and Fernando Ramos were commisioned by the head of the urban Planning Department at the Barcelona City Council, Oriol Bohigas, to research, design and supervise the reconstruction of the Pavilion. Work began in 1983 and the new building was opened on its original site in 1986. The onyx wall played an important roll in the design of the pavilion. Time was limited for the design and Mies recalled that is was winter at the time: ... since you cannot move marble in winter because it is still wet inside and would easily freeze and break into pieces, we had to find dry material. Eventually I found an onyx block of a certain size, and since I only had the possibility of this block, I made the pavilion twice that height, and then we developed the plan. The bronze sculpture entitled Alba (Dawn) was chosen out of the existing work of Georg Kolbe by Mies van der Rohe. It was not designed for this pavilion, but remarkably fits very well in the pavilion's scale and spacial flow.


Barcelona Pavilion
Made by MarcelGermain
The Barcelona Pavilion, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, was the German Pavilion for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona. It was an important building in the history of modern architecture, known for its simple form and extravagant materials, such as marble and travertine. The building stood on a large podium alongside a pool. The structure itself consisted of eight steel posts supporting a flat roof, with curtain glass walling and a handful of partition walls. The overall impression is of perpendicular planes in three dimensions forming a cool, luxurious space. Mies designed the Barcelona chair for the house. The Pavilion was dismantled at the end of the exhibition, but a copy has since been built on the same site. (Source: Wikipedia)

Barcelona - Barcelona - Pavellò Mies van der Rohe

The Barcelona Pavilion, a work emblematic of the Modern Movement, was designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969) as the German national pavilion for the 1929 Barcelona International Exhibition. After the closure of the Exhibition, the Pavilion was disassembled in 1930. As time went by, it became a key point of reference not only in Mies van der Rohe's own career but also in twentieth-century architecture as a whole. Given the significance and reputation of the Pavilion, thoughts turned towards its possible reconstruction. In 1980 the architects Ignasi de Solà-Morales, Cristian Cirici and Fernando Ramos were designated to supervise the reconstruction of the Pavilion. Work began in 1983 and the new building was opened on its original site in 1986.

Barcelona Pavilion - Mies van der Rohe
Made by Paul J White
The Barcelona Pavilion, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, was the German Pavilion for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona, Spain. It was an important building in the history of modern architecture, known for its simple form and extravagant materials, such as marble and travertine. Because this was planned as an exhibition pavilion, it was intended to exist only temporarily. The building was torn down in early 1930, not even a year after it was completed. However, thanks to black and white photos and original plans, a group of Spanish architects reconstructed the pavilion permanently between 1983 and 1986. I'm very glad they did, as it's bloody amazing! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barcelona_Pavilion

too much information
Made by bostankorkulugu
The Information Age, also commonly known as the Computer Age or Information Era, is an idea that the current age will be characterized by the ability of individuals to transfer information freely, and to have instant access to knowledge that would have been difficult or impossible to find previously. The idea is linked to the concept of a Digital Age or Digital Revolution, and carries the ramifications of a shift from traditional industry that the Industrial Revolution brought through industrialization, to an economy based on the manipulation of information... ...taken at the Plaça Espanya metro station...

y música, pero este detalle imposible de captar por la cámara , se queda en el alma de quienes los contemplan. En la Font Màgica de Montjuic (Barcelona), una de las últimas obras realizadas en el recinto de la Exposición Internacional de 1.929, su creador el ingeniero Carles Buïgas ideó un nuevo tipo de fuente-surtidor, en la que el elemento artístico son las formas cambiantes del agua. Más recientemente se la dotó del color, tal como se aprecia en la toma con un pequeño detalle del Palau Nacional D'Art de Catalunya (MNAC) al fondo.

Palau Nacional
Made by swilton
The Palau Nacional in Barcelona. Didn't really gain much from the HDR but it brings out the reflectoin better than I could in the single exposure. It turns out Barcelona shuts off it's fountains in the summer to conserve water (although these ones are on at night on weekends). Kind of upset I couldn't get any fountain shots but at the same time I couldn't use it as a tripod if it was running. 5 exposure HDR
