This catalogue not only shows Sert’s architectural work, but also reveals its effects on town planning. On a theoretical level, as a young man he defended the ideas behind new architecture. As a creative architect, he designed buildings that are still admired as examples to be followed. The Fundació Joan Miró is the building Sert created to house the work of his friend Miró, and it can now help show the public something of the career and the work of this architect who is absolutely central to understanding modernism.
