Joan Miró (1893-1983) was born in Barcelona, but his emotional landscapes, which shaped him as a person and artist, are essentially Mont-roig, Paris, Mallorca, and later New York and Japan. Mont-roig, a small town in the Baix Camp region, served as the counterpoint to the intellectual agitation he experienced in Paris in the twenties alongside surrealist poets, and to the inspiration of abstract expressionism he discovered in New York in the forties. Later, during World War II, Joan Miró left his exile in France and settled in Palma de Mallorca, a refuge and workspace where his friend Josep Lluís Sert designed the studio he had always dreamed of.
The rootedness in the landscape of Mont-roig first and Mallorca later will be decisive in his work. The connection with the land and interest in everyday objects and the natural environment will serve as the background for some of his technical and formal investigations. Miró avoids academicism, constantly seeking a universal and pure work, not affiliated with any specific movement. Expressed through forms and public manifestations, it is through the plastic act that Joan Miró demonstrates his rebellion and a great sensitivity to the political and social events surrounding him. This contrast of forces will lead him to create a unique and highly personal language that positions him as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
