WATCH SOME VIDEOS AND LEARN ABOUT COLOURS, SHAPES AND FIGURES MIRÓ USED TO WORK ON.

A SPANISH ARTIST: JOAN MIRÓ

• Joan Miró was born April 20, 1893 in Barcelona, Spain. His dad was a gold smith and watch maker. Joan had an early passion for art, and took drawing classes while at primary school. As for his other classes though, he did rather poorly. Art was the only thing he excelled at. In 1907, he enrolled at School of Industrial and Fine Arts in Barcelona, the Lonja, and stayed there until 1910.

• In 1912 while recovering from typhoid, he decided to be a painter. He spent three years at a school run by Francesco Galí, and studied art at the Cercle Artístic de Sant Lluc. He had his first solo exhibition in 1918 at the Daluma Galleries. All the art in the show was influenced by Fauvism, Cubism, folk-Catalan art, and Roman Frescoes; his work at this point combines many types of art, but it does not look anything like his mature work.

• He traveled to Paris and met Picasso in 1920. Miró considered it an honor to meet one of his favorite painters. Harlequin’s Carnival, 1925, is really confusing. It has a bunch of toys and imaginary things all over the canvas, making it look like a kid’s mind. This piece represents what his mature work would resemble.

Pilar Juncosa, and they had a daughter, Dolores on July 17, 1931. Soon after, the Spanish Civil War broke out, so they moved to Paris. They moved back to Spain in 1940. During the time in Spain though, his art started showing Surrealism.

• Composition, made in 1933, a fantasy dream-like state. It has the influence of Henri Matisse in the lines, shapes and colours.

• During the late 50’s, Joan focused on public art projects like murals. The most famous is the Wall of the Moon and Wall of the Sun, made from 1957 to 1958, at the UNESCO building in Paris. The murals are made on ceramic.
