Noucentisme is a cultural and artistic movement that emerged in Catalonia during the early 20th century, roughly between 1906 and 1923. It sought to promote a modern identity for Catalonia while emphasizing classical values, order, and harmony. This movement was a response to Modernisme, which was more avant-garde and individualistic. The movement influenced various fields, including literature, architecture, and visual arts. Notable figures associated with Noucentisme include the poet Joan Maragall and the architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch. Overall, Noucentisme aimed to create a refined cultural expression that balanced tradition with modernity.
