(*) Joan Miró (1893-1983) was born in Barcelona, but his emotional landscapes, which shaped him as a person and as an artist, are essentially Mont-roig, Paris, Mallorca and later New York and Japan. Mont-roig, a small town in the Baix Camp comarca, will be the counterpoint to the intellectual agitation he experienced in Paris in the twenties alongside the surrealist poets, and to the stimulation of abstract expressionism that he discovered in New York in the forties. Later, during the Second World War, Joan Miró would leave his exile in France and settle in Palma de Mallorca, a space of refuge and work, where his friend Josep Lluís Sert would design the studio he had always dreamed of.
The rooting in the Mont-roig landscape first and in Mallorca thereafter would prove decisive in his work. The bond with the land and the interest in everyday objects and in the surrounding natural world would form the background of some of his technical and formal investigations. Miró fled from academicism, in search of a constantly evolving global and pure work, not affiliated with any particular movement. Contained in form and in public manifestations, it is through the plastic fact that Joan Miró shows his rebellion and a great sensitivity to the political and social events around him. This contrast of forces would lead him to create a unique, highly personal language that places him among the most influential artists of the 20th century."
