One of the true legends of the art world, Joan Miro is a name synonymous with contemporary visuals. Images inspired by his dreams where chaotic and juxtaposed creativity became his mesmerising signature.
A man who was outspoken and energised by his younger contemporaries, Miro worked during the Spanish Civil War and under the reign of General Franco. A master of Surrealism and whose work spanned ceramics and sculpture, as well as painting. Miro was a perfectionist and it was latterly discovered that he suffered from depression throughout his life, which goes some way to explaining perhaps his dark, creative genius.
