Joan Brossa<\/strong> is one of the most prolific Catalan<\/strong><\/a> avant-garde poets whose works defied the construct of genres and dividing lines between the arts. Brossa\u2019s<\/strong> creations were varied and included literary poetry, theatre, cinema, visual poetry, objects, posters and installations all of which he considered as sides of the same pyramid. His work is centered on three essential elements: poetry, action and the visual. He was one of the early proponents of visual poetry<\/strong> in Catalan<\/strong> literature and founder of the Dau al Set<\/strong> group together with renowned artists like Antoni T\u00e0pies<\/strong>, Joan Pon\u00e7<\/strong>, Arnau Puig<\/strong>, Modest Cuixart<\/strong>, Joan-Josep Tharrats<\/strong> and Juan-Eduardo Cirlot<\/strong>. The Dal al Set<\/strong> was committed to reviving the Catalan<\/strong> artistic tradition that was disrupted after Franco\u2019s rule. They published a magazine through which they put forward their artistic and intellectual interests. Here are some of his profound works in Barcelona<\/strong>!<\/p>\n
