JOAN MIRO (1893-1983) Joan Miro was a Surrealist Spanish painter who created artwork of imaginative fantasy. Miro was very much against the established painting methods of the time, and is often credited with being the founder of automatic drawing. Automatic drawing is the process of allowing the hand to move randomly on the canvas, leaving the artwork to chance. His dreamlike works contain impressions of playfully distorted animal forms, twisted organic shapes, and odd geometric constructions. A contemporary of Picasso, Miro towers as one of the great masters of modern art, and is amongst the most famous artists of the 20th century.

- Sky Bird, Braniff Flying Colors suite, Alexander CalderBy Alexander CalderLocated in Auburn Hills, MIALEXANDER CALDER (1898-1976) Credited with the invention of the mobile, Alexander Calder revolutionized twentieth-century art with his innovative use of subtle air currents to animate sculpture. Calder was prolific and worked throughout his career in many art forms. An accomplished painter of gouaches and sculptor in a variety of media, Calder is best known for poetic arrangements of boldly colored, irregularly shaped geometric forms that convey a sense of harmony and balance. He also designed jewelry, tapestry, theater settings and architectural interiors.
