Joan Miro

Joan Miro (1893-1983) is a Spanish Catalan artist known for his exuberant and child-like art. Although his work is difficult to place within a particular artistic movement of the time, it is most often associated with Surrealism and Dadaism. His experimental style and pride in his Catalan heritage were huge influences, and although the Spanish Civil War and World War II were two major upheavals over the course of his career, he succeeded in guiding his work away from political state for many years until The Reaper, a politically charged mural that was on display in the Spanish Republican Pavilion during 1937 Paris Exhibition.
