Gaudi is goofy. Imitating nature takes art back to the baboons. Dan Brown's praise of the architectural monstrosity turned my stomach.

I like most of Gaudi's work but not his Cathedral. I think the Gothic churches are the finest architectural masterpieces, Gaudi's is impressive but too modern for my taste and lacks the gravitas of the Gothics.
