Joan Miro Life and Work by Jacques Dupin, 1st Ed
About the Item
Joan Miro Life and Work by Jacques Dupin. Published by Harry N. Abrams, 1962, New York. 1st Ed hardcover with Brodart covered dust jacket. A Catalogue Raisonne of Miro's paintings from 1914-1961. 596pp. 1158 illustrations, including 46 color hand-tipped plates with a complete bibliography. Considered one of the great artists of the 20th century, Miro has bequeathed us a definitive body of work whose influence has continued to grow over the years. He did not paint dreams, but instead, through his works, provided the spectator with certain elements so that he would be the one that dreamed. Miro never worked under the influence of hypnosis drugs or alcohol. His life, like his painting was always methodical and ordered. Nevertheless, his artistic personality and the way he represented on canvas what inspiration dictated to him led Andre Breton to exclaim, "Miro is the most surrealist of us all!" This book not only details his pictorial output but also looks at the artist's incursions into areas as diverse as graphic work, ceramics, sculpture, tapestry and theatre. A creative force in the plastic field who felt an equal passion for the world, a lover of objects and the bare truth of materials, Miro always revealed himself as a dream artist, the constellations that inspired some of this finest works.
