AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Joan Miró - Cahier d'ombres - Derrière le Miroir 1956

A composition of great expressive force that reflects the plastic and poetic universe of Joan Miró. This work was published in the famous art magazine Derrière le Miroir, a publication linked to the Galerie Maeght in Paris, which brought together some of the most important graphic creations of the great artists of the 20th century.

On an irregular-textured background, Miró develops a language of signs, sinuous lines and organic forms that seem to float and relate freely in space.

The prominence of the black strokes, energetic and spontaneous, establishes a dialogue with small areas of blue, yellow, green and red, creating an interesting balance between gesture, rhythm and color.

The work reflects one of the most recognizable features of Miró's imaginary: his ability to transform seemingly simple elements into a visual language full of suggestions, movement and freedom.

A piece of marked graphic character, representative of the close relationship between Joan Miró and art publishing and the renewal of the visual language of the 20th century.
