A Good Ten Years After His Death, Miró Still Ranks Indisputably As One Of The Greatest Artists Of Surrealism. In Large Format, Coloured Illustrations, Zdenek Felix Presents 100 Drawings And Sculptures From The Years 1945-1983 Which Miró Bequeathed To The Fundació Miró In Barcelona. In The Drawings Of This Late Phase, The Spontaneous, That Which Eschews Critical Reason As Well As The Control Of Artistic Will Is Perceptible. Joan Miró Remained True To His Genuine Language Of Forms And Symbols, But The Figuratively Discernible Continually Steps Into The Background. The Assemblages And Objets Trouvés Have Quite A Fascination Of Their Own Into Which He Incorporated Everyday Objects Of His Surroundings And Which He Let Us Playfully Re-Experience In Surprising Coherence. With This Magnificent Picture Book, The Authors Introduce Us To Joan Miró, The Homo Ludens Among The Artists Of The 20Th Century.
