Joan Miró was a Spanish artist from Catalonia whose poetic visual language brought together abstraction and Surrealism. His compositions feature vivid colour, fluid lines, and recurring signs suggesting birds, stars, and human figures. Across painting, sculpture, ceramics, and printmaking, he pursued an experimental approach rooted in imagination and his connection to the Catalan landscape.

Selected exhibitions include Joan Miró at the Museum of Modern Art, New York (1941–1942).
