Barceloneta

If you knew Barcelona before the Olympic games of 1992 you will know that the city completely transformed for the games, specially the seafront, changing industry for tourism.

The efforts to accomplish this transformation were huge, and amongst them was the city hall initiative to place outdoors sculptures on every beach.

German artist Rebecca Horn, who lived in Barcelona in the 60’s was commissioned to design a piece for the Barceloneta beach. She called it “L’Estel ferit” which quickly became one of the most recognized symbols of the city.
