An exhibition at Park Güell showcases ten giant Easter eggs inspired by the works of Antoni Gaudí, celebrating both his centenary and Barcelona's title as World Capital of Architecture.
The exhibition 'Gaudí en chocolate' runs from March 17 to April 9 at the iconic Sala Hipòstila of Park Güell, featuring ten giant Easter eggs crafted by master pastry chefs. This collaboration with the Gremio de Pastelería de Barcelona marks a unique blend of culinary art and architectural homage, coinciding with two significant celebrations in Barcelona: the centenary of renowned architect Antoni Gaudí and the city's recent designation as the World Capital of Architecture.
Each Easter egg creatively interprets various elements of Park Güell, showcasing the artistic talents of the chosen pastry chefs. Visitors to the exhibition not only get to admire these edible works of art but also participate in a public vote to select a favorite egg, which will later be displayed at the Chocolate Museum in Barcelona. Meanwhile, the other eggs will be distributed at a ceremony involving local school children, emphasizing community involvement and the spirit of Easter festivities.
This event highlights the intersection of culture, gastronomy, and architecture, reinforcing Barcelona's vibrant creative scene. It serves not only as a tribute to Gaudí's lasting legacy but also invites residents and tourists alike to engage with the artistic community, fostering a deeper appreciation of the city’s rich heritage during this significant year for Barcelona.
