El Arte

Description

Catalonia, in northeastern Spain-an autonomous community distinguished by its unique dialect, its dynamic industry, and its culture. For Catalans, art is an important part of daily life, from sardana music in the village squares to the ultra-modern design and architecture of its major cities, especially Barcelona. This program features architects and painters describing their work and ambitions-a series of discussions that are also useful Spanish lessons, helping viewers articulate complex ideas in the language. The video encourages students to talk about urban geography, architecture, paintings, art history, and more.
