Jacques Dupin, Selected Poems

Joan Miró

Considered one of the great artist of the 20th century, Joan Miro has bequeathed us a definitive body of work whose influence has continued to grow over the years. Miro did not paint dreams but instead , through his works, provided the spectator with certain elements so that he would be the one that dreamed. He never worked under the influence of hypnosis, drugs or alcohol. Nevertheless, his artistic personality and the way he represented on canvas what inspiration dictated to him led André Breton to exclaim: Miro is the most surrealist of us all!!. A creative force in the plastic field who felt an equal passion for the word, for the most daring poetic plays, a lover of objects and the bare truth of materials, Miro always revealed himself as an oneiric artist, a seeeker after the constellations that inspired some of his finest works. Jacques Dupin the main authority in Miro work details all those items in his amazing essay: The Birth of Signs. 72 illustrations
