Biography

Miró is one of the most important surrealist artists. In Paris he became friends with, among others, Pablo Picasso, Max Ernst, Hans Arp and René Magritte. Miró was influenced by Cubism, but never pursued a complete abstraction. The shapes in his work always refer to a reality – that of the real world or that of dreams. In 1925 Miró met the founder of Surrealism, André Breton. Miró never formally joined Surrealism, but Breton saw him as the greatest Surrealist. Miró is known for his bio-morphic painting, in which a poetic dream world is the setting in which objects detach from their function. In this way they integrate into an organic world of figures, which is determined by women, nature and sexual problems.

Exhibitions & Awards

In 1954 Miró received the prize for graphic art at the Venice Biennale, in 1958 he received the Guggenheim International Award. In 1979 he was awarded the highest award from the Catalan government, the Medalla d'Or de la Generalitat. In Spain, two museums are entirely devoted to Miró. His work is also included in many important museum collections.
