Renown for the diversity of his work, Barceló’s oeuvre ranges from monumental terracotta murals for the chapel of Saint Peter inside the Cathedral of Palma de Mallorca to a performance piece/living sculpture with the French Serbian-born choreographer Josef Nadj. In 2008 he created the ceiling painting for Chamber XX of the Human Rights and Alliance of Civilizations, at the United Nations offices in Geneva, covering the 1500m2 ellipsoidal dome with 35 tons of paint of pigments from all corners of the globe creating multi-coloured stalactite forms.
