Joan Miró (1893-1983) was born in Barcelona, where he grew up and began his artistic studies. He attended the La Llotja Academy against the wishes of his parents, who wanted him to work in a more traditional way. Later, he studied at the Escola d'Art of Francesc Galí and met the Fauves and Cubists. His emotional landscapes, which will shape 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 comarca, will be the counterpoint to the intellectual agitation he experiences in Paris, where he moved in the twenties alongside surrealist poets and the most creative artists of his time. There, he came to know Arp, Magritte, Brancusi, and Giacometti, and exhibited alongside Dalí, Tanguy, Meret Oppenheim, and Max Ernst in various exhibitions on Dadaism and Surrealism. The stimulus of Abstract Expressionism was discovered in New York in the 1940s. Later, in 1956, during the midst of World War II, Joan Miró left his exile in France and settled in Palma de Mallorca, a place of refuge and work, where his friend Josep Lluís Sert designed the studio he had always dreamed of. There, he focused on sculpture and ceramics work until his death in 1983. The attachment to the landscape of Mont-roig first and Mallorca later will be decisive in his work. The connection with the land and the interest in everyday objects and the natural environment will be the backdrop of some of his technical and formal investigations. Miró shuns academicism, constantly seeking a global and pure work, not affiliated with any particular movement. Rooted in forms and public manifestations, it is through the plastic act that Joan Miró shows 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. (') 'Parler Seul' represents a particularly effective collaboration between artist and author. Miró's brilliantly spontaneous and amorphous images, drawn directly on the stone with very few preparatory sketches, possess the inventive vigor of Tzara's random verses. The original edition was produced by Maeght Editeur and consists of 72 original lithographs by Miró, 49 of which are in color, with 18 being hors-texte.
