JOAN MIRÓ I FERRÀ (Barcelona, 1893 - Palma de Mallorca, 1983). Barcelona series, 1972. Etching, aquatint and carborundum. Copy 'Bon a tiré', 1972. Signed and inscribed in pencil. Inscribed: "Bat. Miró 6/IV/72 - 28/III/72 (6)." Ref. no. 598, p. 231, "Miró Graveur", Vol. II. Measurements: 70 x 105 cm; 87 x 122 cm (frame). Joan Miró is formed in Barcelona, and debuts individually in 1918, in the Dalmau Galleries. In 1920 he moved to Paris and met Picasso, Raynal, Max Jacob, Tzara and the Dadaists. There, under the influence of surrealist poets and painters, he matures his style; he tries to transpose surrealist poetry to the visual, based on memory, fantasy and the irrational. His third exhibition in Paris, in 1928, was his first great triumph: the Museum of Modern Art in New York acquired two of his works. He returned to Spain in 1941, and that same year the museum dedicated a retrospective to him that would be his definitive international consecration. Throughout his life he received numerous awards, such as the Grand Prizes of the Venice Biennale and the Guggenheim Foundation, the Carnegie Prize for Painting, the Gold Medals of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Fine Arts, and was named Doctor Honoris Causa by the universities of Harvard and Barcelona. His work can currently be seen at the Joan Miró Foundation in Barcelona, as well as at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the MoMA in New York, the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid, the National Gallery in Washington, the MNAM in Paris and the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo.

JOAN MIRÓ I FERRÀ (Barcelona, 1893 - Palma de Mallorca, 1983). "Miró, Museum of Modern Art Mexico". 1980. Lithograph on Arches vellum, copy 2/100. Signed, dedicated, dated and numbered in pencil. Publisher: Museo de Arte Moderno de México. Printer: Litografías Artística Damià Caus, Barcelona. Reproduced in Maeght Editeur "Miró Litógrafo VI", p. 148. Measurements: 76 x 56 cm; 97 x 77 x 4 cm (frame). This lithograph by Miró, limited to one hundred copies, was used for the poster announcing Joan Miró's exhibition in the Bosque de Chapultepec in the spring of 1980, at the Museum of Modern Art. Moons, stars, figures reduced to a few strokes in thick black enclosing in their interior primary colors... synthesize some of Joan Miró's soul constellations gathered in this image.
