About the Item
Joan Miró is one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. He is renowned internationally as a painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist.
Miró’s works, which were at the intersection between Surrealism and abstraction, began receiving international attention in the 1920s. Miro had an incredibly prolific career and created artwork in an array of media until the time of his death in 1983.
Miró’s passionate rejection of traditional painting led him to reference and experiment with multiple styles including Cubism, Dutch Baroque, and Fauvism. He developed a unique visual language by combining abstract elements, specific colors, and reoccurring motifs.
His best-known period of work began in the early 1960s when he began receiving many public work commissions. His works are noted for their freshness, body language, and deep meanings. He is an important bridge between Surrealism and abstraction.
The “Obra Inèdita Recent” (Unpublished Recent Work) portfolio is a paradigm of Miro's oeuvre and artistic expression. Originally published as a catalogue for the 1964 Miró exhibitions at Sala Gaspar, Galeria Metras, and Belarte in Barcelona, the book features texts by Joan Brossa, A. Cirici, and E. Cirlot.
This plate is particularly well-orchestrated. Complimentary yellow and purple scribbles ground the image, accented by a green circle and thick, black annotations. The different elements vie for the viewer's attention, each holding their ground as they interact with one another. With a dynamic sense of depth, this composition is bold, playful, and classically Miro.
As an early, initialed and numbered lithograph, this Miro piece would make a great start or addition to any 20th Century Masters collection.

Joan Miró
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.”
