This book is a summary of the Third Rosa Barba European Landscape Award held in Barcelona, Spain in November 2003.

Summary:
For years, Barcelona-based Angel Albarrán (born 1969) and Anna Cabrera (born 1969) have been the preferred printers for museums and world-renowned photographers such as Masao Yamamoto. Recently they have branched out as artists themselves, experimenting with new and traditional print techniques and exhibiting worldwide. In addition to mastering traditional techniques such as platinum prints and cyanotypes, they have developed a unique print technology: printing photographs with pigments on thin Japanese paper, which is then placed over gold leaf, imbuing the images with an otherworldly quality.

Summary:
Le modèle Barcelone, paru aux éditions del Serbal en 2005 sous le titre El Modelo Barcelona: un examen critico, a fait grand bruit en Espagne. Sans langue de bois, l'auteur passe au crible les transformations urbanistiques de la capitale catalane, et critique les politiques urbaines comme les travaux des architectes. En soulignant l'intérêt de mieux respecter les contextes locaux, en suggérant des mesures démocratiques adaptées, l'auteur ajoute au modèle d'urbanisme, si souvent cité voire imité un peu partout dans le monde, une valeur exemplaire, encore plus significative pour inspirer les rénovations des villes.
