		Gaudi's most noted work, and the one upon which the case for his sainthood is based, is Barcelona's Cathedral of the Sagrada Familia.
		Gaudi's designs were so novel that contemporary furniture seemed out of place in his buildings, so his clients asked that he design furnishings in a similar style.
		Gaudi suffered from a debilitating form of rheumatism all his life, and, according to Gueilburt, that disability focused Gaudi's attention on the human form and its structure.

		It was also during his early years studying with the Escolapius Fathers that Gaudi recognized the “value of the divine history of the salvation of man through Christ incarnate, given to the world by the Virgin Mary.” He later incorporated such beliefs into his greatest work, The Sagrada Familia.
		Gaudi took over the project in 1884 after a disagreement between a member of the Temple Council and the original project manager, Fracisco de Paula del Villar (Gaudi’s former professor), over materials.
		Antonio Gaudi was a mere 31 years of age when he officially gained control over the building.

		Hiroshi Teshigahara's Antonio Gaudi is a spare, astonishing, and haunting documentary on the designs of famed turn of the century Spanish architect, Antonio Gaudi (1852-1926).
		The second building, Casa Mila de Pedrera (1906-1910) was constructed to function as a residential complex: the undulating structural profile reminiscent of a beehive colony is echoed in the latticework of the main entrance, and the scalloped ceiling pattern further emulates the motion of the waves.
		The project, abandoned due to Antonio Gaudi's untimely death and the Spanish Civil War, has recently been reactivated as a testament to the legacy of this architectural visionary.

		Creator of one of the most bizarre and organic styles in the history of architecture, Antonio Gaudi Cornet, Spain's national treasure, was blessed with not only the vision, but the patronage that allowed him to build his elaborate and surreal designs.
		Little is told of Gaudi's life; instead this film concentrates on some of his more notable work and does so brilliantly.
		As if Gaudi's work wasn't enough, it also features music by the great Toru Takemitsu, who is the ultimate tour guide, much better than the narrator a lesser documentary on Gaudi might have provided.

		Hiroshi Teshigahara's "Antonio Gaudi" is a spare, astonishing, and haunting documentary on the designs of famed turn of the century Spanish architect, Antonio Gaudi (1852-1926).

		Gaudi (1852-1926) is now recognized as one of the 20th century's leading art-nouveau architects and his writhing, twisting, curved constructions decorated with colorful ceramic detailing are as much a part of the popular image of Barcelona as the Eiffel Tower is to Paris.
		Utilizing few talking-head interviews and no narration, the film concentrates instead on the striking and beautiful works of art and architecture, suggesting the influence of natural formations such as the caves and crags of Montserrat, as well as ancient Romanesque churches and monasteries.
		Particularly moving is a tour of Gaudi's last, unfinished work, the cathedral Templo de la Sagrada Familia.

		Gaudi was strongly religious, yat at the same time boldly innovative in his designs.
		Near the end of the film, a Japanese narrator translates Spanish into Japanese--the Spanish is that of a student of Gaudi's; meanwhile, English subtitles appear at the bottom of the screen.
		Teshigahara means, of course, for Gaudi's work to speak for itself, but he is also, I think, saying that there is something more to these breathtaking forms than just the sensuous pleasure of seeing them.
