Barcelona gegantera

Història d’un moviment popular contemporani

Author/s
Nico Alonso Crozet

This publication offers an exhaustive look at the tradition of giants in our city, from the earliest giants, representing ancestral legends and customs, to the present-day figures, lively, iconic images of each of Barcelona's neighbourhoods. The book focuses not only on the figures but also on the giant groups, their ties to the neighbourhoods and the associative networks that built up around them. It is completed with videos of interviews with leading people and giant dances, which have been compiled here for the first time.
