Sacred Pilgrimage: Gaudi and Galban - Galban’s Sacred Tribute to Gaudí Launches in Tampa Bay – Written by Tarin Mohajeri
Tampa Bay will soon serve as the starting point for a powerful and moving art experience: Sacred Pilgrimage: Gaudí and Galban, a traveling exhibit that brings together the architectural genius of Antoni Gaudí and the deeply personal vision of local Cuban American artist AGalban.
During a major heart episode, Galban had a vivid, spiritual vision of Gaudí’s Basilica de la Sagrada Familia—revealing intricate details he'd never noticed before. Inspired by this transformative moment, Galban created a series of 24 paintings that reflect the themes of faith, fragility, and transcendence. His work draws directly from the Basilica’s iconic Passion façade, offering a fresh, emotional lens on one of the world’s greatest architectural wonders.
The exhibit pairs Galban’s paintings with photographs of Gaudí’s work and includes interactive features like virtual artist interviews, guided tours, and an educational talk by a representative of the Center for Architecture and Design, Tampa Bay. To further anchor the exhibition to its spiritual roots, the show will travel to several churches and sacred spaces across Florida and the U.S. for a year, before concluding in June 2026—the 100th anniversary of Gaudí’s death and the completion of 137 years of building Sagrada Familia.
The first location on the exhibition schedule is St. Cecelia Catholic Church, 820 Jasmine Way in Clearwater on June 25, 2025 (celebrating Gaudi’s birthday) from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.
Sacred Pilgrimage: Gaudí and Galban invites viewers on a journey that bridges continents, creativity, and the sacred. It’s a tribute to the enduring power of art to heal, inspire, and connect. For more information, please visit www.agalbanfineart.com.
