Antoni Gaudi, the sole non-painter on this list, was a Contemporary architect. His groundbreaking blend of technology and nature was unparalleled before and after his passing. The natural form concept is apparent in the numerous works of Gaudi in Spain.Gaudi takes massive inspiration from Oriental and neo-Gothic art. Some of his architectural works were designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites for their historical and artistic significance. Also, his religious works, like the unfinished Sagrada Familia, earned him the moniker ‘God’s Architect’ and praise from Catholic leaders.
Gaudi supported the Modernista movement, which reached its pinnacle in the late nineteenth century. The Moorish impacted his art, which has an organic character.
