Joan Miró Abstract Paintings
Catalan, 1893-1983
With his wide-ranging oeuvre, comprising strikingly original paintings, prints, ceramics, sculptures, metal engravings and murals, Catalan modernist Joan Miró was a critical force in moving 20th-century art toward complete abstraction. Although often considered an early Surrealist because of his nonobjective imagery and evocation of the subconscious, he defies neat categorization.
Miró’s identity is largely rooted in the city of his birth: Barcelona. To this day, a number of his public artworks can be found there, including the 72-foot-tall statue Dona i Ocell (Woman and Bird), 1983. Female and avian forms, along with bright colors and the theme of Catalan pride, are recurring elements in his work.
The radical visual world Miró created with his expressive lines, signature symbols and biomorphic shapes influenced such American Abstract Expressionists as Jackson Pollock and Color Field painters like Mark Rothko and Barnett Newman.
Mirò continued to work and experiment until his death at the age of 90 in 1983. Five years before that, he was quoted saying, “I painted these paintings in a frenzy, with real violence so that people will know that I am alive, that I’m breathing, that I still have a few more places to go. I’m heading in new directions.”

Litografía sobre papel Guarro firmada a lápiz y numerada H.C. Creada en 1976 por Joan Miró para la exposición llevada a cabo en la Galería 4 Gats de Palma de Mallorca entre Junio y Julio de ese mismo año. En esta muestra se presentó en la isla el libro “El Pi de Formentor” editado por la galería Gaspar de Barcelona, que comprendía el texto de Miquel Costa i Llobera y cinco poemas de Salvador Espriu, acompañados por cinco grabados de Miró. La litografía está firmada a lápiz en la parte inferior derecha, y en la izquierda incluye la inscripción H.C. que demuestra que es una prueba de artista, es decir que corresponde a la comprobación de la imagen definitiva. Además es una estampa “avant la lettre”, de esta manera es la imagen utilizada como cartel en la que después se incluyó el texto con los detalles de la exposición. Es una imagen sin narración, contiene un animal propio del imaginario surrealista de Miró que sujeta un cartel donde puede leerse “Galería 4 Gats” y...
