DREAM OF BERNAT METGE, Joan Piqué i Carbó 1925
Piqué broke the physical barriers between the different parts of the whole, with a symbiosis that is sometimes unknown where the representation of the writer Bernat Metge begins and where that of his work ends. Therefore, the ensemble that stages the allegorical part stirs like a cloud under the bust of the distinguished writer, in an unstructured matter, more akin to the imagination of Bernat Metge than to the academicism of a commemorative monument.
The swirling movement organizes the large amount of figures of the composition, figures that serve on the one hand to illustrate passages of The Dream, however on the other hand, they make this piece the most sensual and fanciful that came from the hands of Piqué, thank you not only to the rhythms created, but also to the huge presence of female nudes
