Happy Halloween!


These masks were inspired by a Mariscal art exhibit, which we attended last weekend. A neat feature of the exhibit was that one literally "entered into" the art. For example, the final piece was a walk in the woods which was created by light, sound, fabric and cardboard. Something so cool we may have to try it downstairs at home in MN!

The Mariscal exhibit was located in La Padrera, a building designed by the famous local architect, Antoni Gaudi. Barcelona contains many of his works. His masterpiece is still being completed and is a Catholic cathedral called La Sagrada Familia. It'll be completed in 2026, which is 100 years after the artist's death.
