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.”

- Cubistic Tapestry or Carpet in Wool and Silk, France, 1930'sBy Sonia DelaunayLocated in Amsterdam, NLArt Deco cubistic carpet / wall tapestry in wool and silk, France, 1930’s . Measures: (332 x 195 cm) This well preserved tapestry that can also be used as a carpet (no shoes allowed) comes from a meeting room from the head office of Philips Electronics in Eindhoven. It comes out of a meeting room and it is truly in an amazing condition. The silk has been very well preserved and the colours really stand out. The black colours work very well almost as a catalysator for the blue and red and together they create a great play between shapes and forms and different materials and colours. The well chosen symboles make this tapestry a pleasure for the eye. In real life much nicer than on the picture. We tried to give you a better understanding of its appearance by putting it in a few settings. Hopefully this helps. More pictures on request. And oh yes, the amazing black and white art work is by Noor Knip...Category
