Exhibitions
The exhibition hall at La Pedrera is located on the building's main floor, the former residence of the Milà family. Ever since it was opened, exhibitions of a range of artists and artistic movements have been held there, making this facility a cultural benchmark in the city of Barcelona.
We believe in the transformative capacity of art and the role of culture as a factor in social cohesion.
Current exhibition
William Klein (New York, 1928) is one of the touchstones of contemporary photography. In the late 1950s, he revolutionised the history of photography and laid the groundwork for a modern aesthetic which is still valid today. A pioneer in street photography, Klein used the camera without limiting himself by any rules, thereby helping to break down the established conventions, uses and ways in photography until then.
The exhibition presents more than two hundred documents which reveal all the creative facets of this American artist —not only photographs but also painting, graphic art and filmmaking— and it seeks to reassert the works of William Klein as one of the most prominent artists of the 20th century, while also highlighting his clear, fierce vision of modern society.
