Joan Miró's lithograph "Per un teatre a Catalunya" created in 1976 was made as a contribution by Miró to the Catalan cultural movement that sought to promote the Catalan language and culture during the Franco regime.
The lithograph depicts an abstract stage with vibrant shapes and colors, and contains elements suggesting the theater, such as curtains and the presence of characters on stage. The title of the work, "Per un teatre a Catalunya", translates as "For a theatre in Catalonia", which suggests that Miró was supporting the idea of building a theater in Catalonia that would promote Catalan culture.
Miró's lithograph "Per un teatre a Catalunya" is part of the permanent collection of the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía in Madrid, Spain. There are also several limited editions of the work that can be found in art galleries and collections around the world.
