Casa Batlló is hosting the Casa Batlló Dialogues in Barcelona from 16 September to 5 November 2026, connecting the building's Gaudí legacy with modern art and digital practice. The series is taking place at the house in Spain and remains relevant to visitors through its final session on 5 November.
Casa Batlló Dialogues connect three artists through 5 November
The programme consists of three conversations inspired by the exhibition Gaudí-Miró-Gomis: Deconstructed. Casa Batlló Contemporary, the building's artistic programme, says the sessions examine how an artist's legacy is constructed and how new perspectives can alter the reading of a work.
The first conversation took place on 16 September 2026, while a second session was scheduled for 14 October. The programme concludes on 5 November 2026 with Tomorrow Bureau - Living Archive, a discussion involving Jack Featherstone and Francesca Gavin. The final session details place it on the third floor of the building.
The closing discussion is in English, while the earlier conversations were listed in Catalan. It considers how artificial intelligence, three-dimensional scanning and other digital tools can reinterpret historical archives, using the exhibition's creative process as its starting point.
The third floor links heritage with new media
The talks connect directly with the building rather than treating it as a neutral conference venue. Casa Batlló Contemporary describes its programme as a meeting point for Antoni Gaudí's legacy, contemporary artists, technologies and architecture.
The exhibition space opened on the second floor on 31 January 2026 after being closed for decades. The current Gaudí-Miró-Gomis exhibition runs from 8 July 2026 to 10 January 2027, while the associated museum presentation continues until 31 December 2026.
A separate restoration has also changed the building's usable interior. In May 2026, the operator announced the opening of the third floor, described as the last original residence in the house to be restored. The work followed three years of archaeological restoration and revealed original 1906 architecture beneath later interventions. The restoration announcement records recovered woodwork, stuccoes, floors and undulating ceilings.
That restored floor gives the November conversation a specific architectural setting. The discussion of living archives therefore takes place inside a residence whose surviving details were themselves recovered from layers added during the twentieth century.
