Description
Joan Miró was a surrealist painter known for his unique atmosphere and spontaneity. This new edition of Roland Penrose's illustrated survey explores Miró's life and work, examining its many phases and major features.
The book delves into the development of Miró's distinctive signs and symbols, as well as his anguished paintings, lyrical gouaches, monumental sculptures, and ceramics. It also looks at his use of poetic titles and his connection to nature and the night.
A brief epilogue by Eduardo de Benito provides insight into Miró's later years, while a foreword by Antony Penrose offers a personal perspective on the relationship between Roland Penrose and the artist. This revised edition is now illustrated in color throughout, with updated bibliography and additional information.
