Joan Miro
Joan Miro was a Spanish painter, sculptor and ceramist. Miro was born on April 20th, 1893 and became a surrealist painter. He has won many awards such as The Gold Medal Of Fine Arts from King Juan Carlos (King of Spain). He died on Christmas Day 1983.
Miró's style was influenced by Surrealism and Dada, yet he rejected membership to any artistic movement in the interwar European years. André Breton, the French founder of Surrealism, described him as "the most Surrealist of us all." Joan Miró was close friends in Paris with the surrealist painter / drawer Masson and later with the sculptor Calder (mobiles). Miró had a very strong influence on early Abstract Expressionism artists in America. He has won many awards such as The Gold Medal Of Fine Arts from King Juan Carlos (King of Spain). He died on Christmas Day 1983.
- And then, as you can see, I give greater and greater importance to the materials I use in my work (1936, fh). A rich and vigorous material seems necessary to me in order to give the viewer that smack I the face that must happen before reflection intervenes. In this way, poetry is expressed through a plastic medium, and it speaks its own language.
