QUIRI QUIBUMIRO LITHOGRAPH SERIES

The result was a series called Sobreteixims. Miro would spread Royo's tapestries on the floor and proceed to design changes, adding all kinds of materials, painting some areas, even burning areas. When he was eighty, he joined forces with a young Spaniard named Josep Royo who was a weaver of tapestries. He was seventy-nine years old when he began his series of monumental bronzes. Miro had tried his hand at ceramics, bronze sculpture, printmaking, book illustration, posters, costume design, etc. His reputation had preceded him and he had already had enormous influence on such American artists as Adolph Gottlieb and Mark Rothko, who had adopted his Surrealist automatism and mysterious primitive symbols for their own purposes. He was the most enduring of the Surrealist artists he first visited the United States in 1947 in order to execute a mural Commission in Cincinnati, Ohio. Most important of these was the painting named The Farm which did not sell in Paris and was sold finally to Ernest Hemingway for $250. All of his work was conceived in Montroig (the site of his family's farm). Miro was certainly the most distinguished painter of Catalonia he was intensely proud of that fact. Her name was Pilar Juncosa and they were happily married in 1929 and were together for fifty-four years. That same year he married the daughter of family friends. He wrote to Picasso in 1929 that he was looking for a studio, a dealer and a wife. Miro went about his career with orderly determination. He kept his brushes clean, waxed and polished the floor of his studio and arranged his canvases in neat order. He lived alone in Paris in total poverty, but everytime he went out he wore a monocle and white spats. He made friends with Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Ernest Hemingway, Max Ernst and Paul Klee and was accepted as a Surrealist, looking stronger as the years went by. That place was Paris and Miro established himself there at the age of twenty-six. But it was not the place where great art was being made. In the first quarter of the 20th century, Barcelona was a cosmopolitan, intellectual city with a craving for the new in art, music and literature. From 1912 he studied at the Barcelona Ecole des Beaux-Arts and the Academie Gali.
