A true work of art requires time ... lots of time. Perhaps that is why some Cardinals prefer the boxy cement cubes which provide immediate gratification.
This is an astounding work! I have posted several links to the chief architect and contributing artists. Take your time visiting these ... there is so much to imbibe.

I have the most vivid memories of being Catholic and in Barcelona in an earlier part of my life. I recall standing in Sagrada Familia and weeping for the unfinished Catholic masterpiece and the great emotion that filled me when I would look up and see the words
