AUTOMATONS

For those in love with these charming androids:

24 automatons which represent charismatic universal and city characters. Some of them belonged to the old Parc d'atraccions Apolo on Avinguda Paral·lel, and others were acquired from historical creators of magic.

If you had the opportunity to visit the "Bar Museo La Fira" in the 1980s in Barcelona, you would have come across Maurice Chevalier draining an eternal bottle of champagne, while King Kong practiced a grimace of pain. Others, more adept at culture, will have been impressed by these and other automatons in the exhibition inaugurated by the brilliant Joan Brossa in the Bulevard d'Antiquaris.
