1979

About the Item

Joan Miró vinyl album art: set of two, 1966 & 1979: Raimon and Joan Miró were close friends that first collaborated on the 1966 album Cançons de la roda del temps. In 1979, Miró designed a cover for the album Quan la aigua queixa, including the name of Raimon in large handwritten letters. As a result of this relationship, Raimon composed the song A Joan Miró, which creatively certified his admiration towards the painter. Off-set lithographs on vinyl record album covers; 1966 & 1979. 12 x 12 inches. Very good condition on the 1979. Good vintage condition on the 1966. Miro credit appears on each (see listing images). Both original records included in good to very good overall condition. Looks fantastic framed individually or as a set. Literature & References: Art & Vinyl Hardcover by Fraenkel & De Beaupré (2018). Taschen: Art Record Covers p. 285. One of the most well-known veteran artists in the Catalan language, Raimon is one of the most important exponents of the musical style of Nova Cançó. Joan Miró was a seminal figure in 20th-century avant-garde painting. The Spanish artist’s innovative use of line, organic shapes, and color represented a major contribution to Surrealism. Representative of his ability to conjure evocative space, Miró’s famed triptych Blue I,II,II (1961) portrays a floating world using only blue, orange, and black. “Little by little, I've reached the stage of using only a small number of forms and colors,” the artist reflected. “It's not the first time that painting has been done with a very narrow range of colors. The frescoes of the tenth century are painted like this.” Born on April 20, 1893 in Barcelona, Spain, the artist first studied commerce before defying his parents and enrolling in the art academy in his hometown. In 1919, Miró moved to Paris where he fell into the Surrealist milieu, befriending André Breton, Max Ernst, Jean Arp, and André Masson. Miró’s work profoundly influenced several American painters, including Arshile Gorky and Mark Rothko. The artist died at age 90 on December 25, 1983 in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. Today, his works are held in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Tate Gallery in London, and the Fundació Joan Miró in Barcelona, a museum dedicated to the artist and his legacy.
